The AP is cheaper to start with and cheaper to switch calibres. I have also read the powder feed is much more accurate on the Hornady. Hornady is also suppose to be better for concentricity with Rifle rounds. I plan to start out reloading 9mm, 45, 5.56 on the progressive. Anybody have any experience witht the hornady machine?

Made me leary of their stuff. http://familyfoundationfund.org Proud descendant of confederate soldiers. Auburn elitist
