I have never used a Lee Loader and was wondering what experiences y'all have had with them, particularly the models for shotguns.

Is it difficult to produce consistent rounds (e.g. a consistent crimp)?

Are they a pain to use if loading more than just a few rounds (i.e. would you NOT use one to load 20-25 shells at a time)?

Should I spend just a little more and get a Lee Load All instead?

Right now, I don't want to spend the money necessary to purchase even a used MEC shotgun reloading press (though that is the eventual goal, IF I find that I load enough rounds for shotguns to justify the cost). I thought the Lee Loader might be a viable solution for the short term.
