The Super Star kit includes two special shell locator straps, so yes, it was designed for a Universal. And as Rolling Stone points out, since .223 is a rimless case there is no way to remove it without modification of the Progressive at the last station.
The shell locator straps are special because the tab rests directly on the steel base so it contacts the rim rather than the side of the case and stabilizes the tall cases. One of the two special straps has an extension that fills the gap between the powder station and the bullet seating station. Without this, the .223 cases have a tendency to rock and fall out of the reloader.
Star Rifle machines also use shorter shell locator straps with the tabs that rest on the steel base.
