I use a taper crimp die on all my auto cases. More reliable feeding.
I use a "factory crimp" die on all my rimed cases.
I also weigh each powder charge.
I don't mix cases.
I trim each case.
I don't use progressive presses anymore. Had too many failures.

My three reloaders are collecting dust, two DILLON 550 & a LEE 50 BMG, but one of these days I'll have to mounted them on a bench

Id take a dillion ! Ive have yet to ever crimp a case and have a failure. In my glock 22, and My Ar-15 the case does not determine the feed, the bullet and runout do.. If the case is to long it creates headspacing issues. To short it may crack, but a short case will destroy accuracy. But I mostly shoot bolt guns, and do long range shoots.
