Okay, I know there are better options. Right now, I am loading pistol on the same single-stage Lee Breech Lock that I started with years ago. I tried the Lee Breech Lock Auto, didn't suit. Press had too much going on, and too much hand switching. Also had an Auto Drum, but it either threw inconsistent, low charges of HP-38, or dumped more on the table than in the case. Could have been me, looking back, it probably just needed cleaning. Gave it to my Dad for his turret, he says it leaks, but not enough for him to care.
Went back to the single, and realized I prefer the pace. I am scooping the powder, and getting decent results, but I am interested in trying a powder drop again. Possibly my issues with the drum were me, but some say the disk is better for pistol powders and charges. I don't compete, just plink, and low volume. My buddy is trying to talk me into a Dillon, which is way out of budget or need. So, do others have good experience with the Auto Disk with HP-38 on a single stage? Anything to watch for, so I don't blame equipment for my mistakes? TIA
