We had a Dillon at work many years ago for loading our .40 practice loads. Don't remember what model it was, but it would crank out the rounds.

I still do all my loading with an RCBS Rock Chucker single stage. Are you and your buddy gonna be shooting that much of the pistol stuff to justify the progressive? Don't get me wrong, if I could afford it, I'd like to have one too, but it's not a necessity.
