I think that the Dillon Square Deal press is good for the person planning to load just one or two straight walled pistol calibers. Since the dies are proprietary to that press, one can only load those calibers that Dillon makes the dies for. As far as I know, there is no casefeeder made for this press, but it is progressive and self indexing.
All in all, there seem to be a lot of folks that are very pleased with their Square Deal Presses. I load so many different calibers that I went with the Dillon 650, and then set up complete toolheads for each caliber that I load in quantity.....I also added a case feeder, as I am being better to myself than I used to be. I still have my old Lyman turret press, and it gets used for calibers that I don't shoot a lot of.
The price seems to be right on the Square Deal, and having Dillon back up their press for life, makes for a solid choice in my view.
