Default Re: Should I move on to a turret or progressive press?

At this point in time it sounds like you have some experience handloading. A turret will marginally speed this up a bit, but not to the extent that it seems that you want. Make the jump to a progressive, it's time. You can get into progressives from a few hundred dollars to sky's the limit. I happen to be sold on Dillons, I would go with the RL550 or even maybe the RL650. The Square Deal B is a fine starter progressive (I have one and it has loaded over 100,000 competition .38 Specs so far with no problems or breakages.) I am thinking about going to a 550 to do my .45 acp (to start).
