Tim,

The case feeder speeds up things by about 10x. If you want to pump out some rounds, it makes a big difference. If you are doing "one at a time" special loads then its not as big of a deal but looking at Lee's ammo boxes there he is not doing one at a time.

In the old days I would load 2-3000 rounds of .45 auto or .357 mag at a time. You could do this in 1.5 to 2 hours with a good progressive with a case feeder. Do not even try this with a Lee unless you had the whole weekend.
