James,
If you are referring to the contact retention device as a "bucket" then the answer is yes. The contact retention will improve the time it takes to make a crimp. With the other, interchangeable die, crimpers, it is a little more trouble to get the contact into the tool with the wire. With both types of tools, a little practice will usually develop a simplified procedure to getting the contact crimped. With the West Mountain Radio tool (and the one you link), you put the contact in place then add the wire and then crimp. With the others, I add the wire to the contact and then using the wire as a handle, insert the contact into the tool and crimp.
