I switched from a 550c that I had 25+ toolheads for. I had 2 for each caliber, a brass processing toolhead and a loading toolhead. Used it for years, served me well, had all the tweaks and upgrades. I got tired of having to grab wrenches to change toolheads and shellplates and locator pins every time I wanted to pop between calibers. Maybe processed brass for one caliber while a different caliber was tumbled, then wanted to pop back and load that other caliber,, etc. While it doesnt take hours, there is no jumping back and forth between cartridges quickly and annoying if you just need to say load a few test rounds then jump back to what you were doing.
The Zero is so nice to be able to have 9 dies loaded up on one turret, and be able to turn a bolt 1/2 a turn and change calibers or dies instantly. I have the 9 dies per turret pretty much grouped by case head diameter with 4 different turrets...
I dont think from a numbers standpoint the Zero is better than say a Nexus as mentioned above when sizing or seating but its also not worse.... From a pure convenience and speed standpoint throughout the process, its way faster with that same accuracy and consistency. If thats something your looking for, the Zero is well worth it.
