    I've been using one for years, and haven't had any issues, it will deliver as good an accurate round as a single stage but you have to do a lot of checking along the way. They do have movement in them, but as long as you are aware of it and check your measurements regularly you won't have problems. I have a turret set up for priming, depriming and bullet pulling(all on the one turret) and the separate calibers on other turrets and find it a very handy system. Having said that, my long range 338 Lapua rounds are made on a single stage rock chucker. I think the turret would be good up to 308, but bigger back to single stage. 6.5x284 is the biggest used on my turret.
    It might be worth mentioning that my Lee depriming die spindle was turned down so that I could deprime 20 cal, and the body was bored out to allow 338 to be deprimed, that way I can use the one depriming tool for all calibers
    That's my 2c worth anyway
