The problems with the DPM is that stick powders do not measure that consistently, so for rifle reloading on a progressive I stick to ball powders....
TAC works well with the 223 and the 308 very well, but there are those that say the Hornady PM with case activated linkage gives better consistency with the Dillon. Personally, the orginaly DPM that was manually operated gave me very consistent results with IMR 4064 and IMR 4895 holding closer to the +/- 0.1gr some suggest is possible? Hey it was just as good as M852 the Military version of FGM.

There is post on one of the boards about doing some mods to the DPM to help with increased consistent powder charges with rifle powders.
