Roll sizing revolver brass?

I have been reading more about the Rollsizer.com machine, as have had issues with my old S&W 952 feeding range brass at times, due to it's tighter chamber. I noticed that they also make caliber conversions for 38 spec/357 mag and 44 spec/mag. I'm curious if anyone has any experience with utilizing this for revolver brass and when it would be most helpful.
 
I use one for all of my pistol brass. If you have the machine it is best to use it every firing, after cleaning but before a regular sizing die. I don’t shoot revolvers but my friends who do, most of them rollsize their brass too.
 
I have the commercial version and am beyond happy. I had a Case-Pro for 20+ years and was also happy with it.

I quit roll sizing over 20 years ago for everything! I use Reading Profile crimp dies for all my revolvers, 32 S&W to the heaviest 475 Linebaugh loads! Improved accuracy, and never have the biggest slugs in the hottest loads jump crimp.

In my Les Baer Premier 1 1/2 that is extremally tight, and Dan Wesson Valor V-BOB thats been jerked over, I use reading taper crimp, couldn't ask for better results in either gun, running 14# springs and lighter loads or tactical springs north of 20# with heavier loads for major, perfect results, once the loads are tuned with the proper springs.

In tight chambers make sure your not over crimping, as to much tension on the ram can cause the case to slightly bulge between the head and the base of the bullet when forcing past the point of a heavy crimp.
