BelRiose, In my experience, it doesn't flare the case enough to seat the bullet without scraping off the coating or without flaring the case so much that you shave brass during the seating process. Even with heavy lubrication of the cases, which does help to prevent this, results were inconsistent. It's really only an issue if you are shooting coated bullets out of Glocks or firearms with similar rifling. It's a pain in the butt to clean lead out of a barrel, but not terribly hard. I just rather avoid the problem to began with. I'll add that I've only been reloading for about 5 years, so there maybe a seasoned "Lee" reloader out there that can chime in and provide a solution to this issue, utilizing the Lee expander. Anymore questions, feel free to send them my way.

BelRiose, I've been using the Auto Breech Lock Pro for three months now. It's not too shabby, and if you are loading plated or jacked bullets, the four stations will do you justice. However, if you load powder coated bullets, the lee powder thru expander doesn't get the job done. In that case, I recommend resizing and priming on the ABLP first (it's goes fast), and then use a Lyman "M" die at station 1, the Lee Auto Drum on station 2 (with the short charging die, it will work for pistol), seat at station 3, and crimp station 4.
