Get yourselves a #1 primer checker like Mrs. Flash and your problems will go away.
When I only had one progressive press, I used to occasionally get too lazy to switch from small primers to large to make .45s and I'd use the small primer .45s for a run of ammo.

Re: 45 ACP cases
I always treated reloading like it was another hobby, everything gets deprimed, then cleaned , then hand priming, then load one at a time on the single stage press. I have a turret I just don't use it much.

Re: 45 ACP cases
As was my MO until i started shooting a whole lot more, and needed to reload more, the dillions are the shitz, and if one does all the prep, which is our discussion here, well, its a blessing to run out a few hundred in a short setting.
when i go shooting its a minimum of 1 to 1.5 k of multiple calibers shot, hell its becoming work just picking up brass, as the assocs. i shoot with are all brass thieves,

Re: 45 ACP cases
So I'm not the only one who shoots with brass thieves?

Re: 45 ACP cases
The only thing I hate more than small primer 45 brass is the 380 auto brass. It always somehow gets mixed in with 9mm brass. 

Re: 45 ACP cases
Send your 380s to me. I'll give them a good home.
