Tim:
I had only 1 problem with my Lyman 1200DPS..and that was with the key pad dying on me..I have never had a stuck kernal of any powder in mine that couldn't be removed by the brush or gentle blowing on the sides..
The RCBS is a pretty good one too..from the article..but I'm mot going to second guess myself over my purchase namely because my Lyman is on my bench and I'm happy with the results it gives. Powder clean-up or changing the powder isn't that difficult to do provided you follow the directions..and I'm not loading hundreds of rounds in an hour to be concerned over a 11 second increase in speed.With the memory of the Lyman as compared to the RCBS is a bigger factor in my usage of it..Someone else may not feel so..
DPS Interface has separate memory for storing and loading up to 100 loads for the 1200 DPS II. Works with both Original 1200 DPS and the new 1200 DPS II models.

It one feature that wasn't expounded upon in the reviews...nether was the fact that you can dispense powder faster if you choose to..all you have to do it hit the fast button..and it will dispense quicker If I am in a big hurry...I can dispense 45 grains of IMR4831...not the SC in 15 seconds using the fast button...I know...I just tested it 10 times doing it this way.....As too the long warm up cycle...this too can be bypassed..I know...I do this often..and I do check the weights to make sure they are dead on..Like I said...I'm quite satisfied with my unit..as I most likely would if I had opted for the RCBS scale as well...both are very good scale/dispensors..I'm quite fortunate to have gotten it discounted even further at where I buy my reloading supplies..
Just my $.02
