No one shoots a 30-06 that much to consider a progressive
I use a Dillon 550C to load for my Garand and 03A3. That Garand can eat a lot of ammo quick, especially if you have help. Youngsters with "Call of Duty" experience really want to try a live one.
It's not too much of a problem to go through 200 rounds in a good range session. Same with 5.56.
I've fired 700 rounds of 45 ACP in the last 3 weeks.
I load those 3 cartridges on a progressive, but the bolts actions I use for hunting, .44 Mag revolver, and the couple lever rifles I have get the single-stage treatment, which is what I'd recommend for someone to start out on.
Buy a solid basic setup for the cartridge you shoot the most, and learn how to do the basic stuff before you start adding stuff.
The above statement is very good advice.
