Something that can load the projectile directly and easily into the case, preferred....
 
I believe the Redding Ultramag still has the largest opening. It is a real pain if there is not enough headroom to cleanly insert the bullet during the seating step. That was my biggest complaint about the Forster Co-Ax, great press, just got tired of blood blisters on my fingers loading large cartridges. Switched to the Ultramag and been very happy with the press.
 
I dont load more than 100 or so at a time so i dont find it to be a big problem sliding em in the rock chucker. Maybe if you do a lot more like flash hole it would be a concern.
