I use the 'drill a bunch of holes in a wooden block' brand of loading blocks.
That way, I can tailor a block to a specific case when needed- like for 32 ACP cases. The 32 ACP needs a small hole and a shallow block.
It is some work to make a bunch of different blocks, I suppose, but, they last forever.

I have too many loading blocks and not enough I've got a mixture of them, some wooden ones from Midway, the green plastic RCBS, and the no name square type. I prefer the wooden block ones, even though most of them are filled up at various stages in the reloading process. But each has a load note so I can remember exactly at what stage I'm at.

I just checked Midway and they do not have their wooden ones anymore, they are good, and not Universal. I'd recommend either making some out of wood or going with the perfect fit Frankford Arsenal ones. The only issue I have with the wood ones are that one of mine has warped so it don't sit flat anymore. Gonna have to DX it, Waidmannseil, Dom.
