If you want high dollar, Redding Reloaders are where you want to go. Way to expensive for me but I can dream can't I?
When I purchased my Dillon 550, the gun store in Columbus, OH, (Vance's) had both a redding progressive and the dillon set up on display. I personally thought The Dillon was a more intuitive setup and faster. The Redding was certainly a sturdy machine, though.
I use Redding dies for all my pistol and rifle reloading, and think they are top shelf dies, but irrespective of money I thought the Dillon progressive had the edge. This was ca. 1995, so maybe the Redding progressive press has gotten better, but it sure looks similar to the one I tried.
YMMV
