No, I will not dump a piece of junk on to someone else. Yes, I have had issues with it over the years but I have reached my limit with it. It will get the hammer and a one way trip to the scrap dealer. I have almost become a pen-pal with the folks at LEE.
Junk is junk!
Send it to me. I've got two & they work fine. I'll give it the love it needs. I'm serious, BTW. I'll take it rather than see it go in the garbage.
I will not sell, donate or otherwise saddle anyone with this garbage but thanks for the offer. This junk gave me problems after I bought it a few years ago and it sat packed away for about 3 years because of some health problems. Got it out, finally got it working, I thought, only to have the primer (the updated black one) break and jamb the system once again.
No, it is going for scrap, THAT is where it belongs!
Well, since you are in to hurling insults, you need to get your head out of your A$$ and consider that there are problems that CAN'T be fixed! Sure in the course of your near sighted life, you have heard of vehicles that have been called "lemons" you know, the car that the manufacturer buys back? Well Mr. Myoptic, it can happen with any product!.
I take offence to the myoptic rant, I'm really good with small things...
My reply was not aimed at you. I stated my problem, hoped for some meaningful ideas to solve the problem, then stated that I was going to "junk" the problem and then some insults started. Correct me if I'm wrong: I bought and paid for this garbage so it is MY decision! LEE has offered to send me MORE replacement parts! About the only things original are the frame and the tool head. All the small parts have been changed, some more than once!
and you just made my point- what would be the harm in letting someone else have a go - I've rebuilt a loadmaster from the ground up and had almost every problem imaginable with it and yet I got mine 2 work and work well- I suspect we'll see you in 2 weeks with rcbs problems
btb, I have 5 presses- 3- lee 1000( which never give any problems) a lee turret( which has KNOWN auto index problems, Dillon 550 and a loadmaster- so i'm NOT a "lee " person" - I started off with rcbs- the 9mm and 45 are synced to throw a round with ONE pull of the lever- I needed the extra hole for revolver- 4 dies instead of 5- the loadmaster was a floor model that everybody had a go at when I got it and was literally worn out, so I KNOW whereof I speak

hey, he's not willing to go down that road at any cost- it's like talking to a wall, and trust me, you don't want a LOADMASTER unless you know what you're doing- it'll be no end of frustration for the amateur- I've been reloading since 73 and had a few presses and I found a beat up loadmaster a challenge in then 90's - esp the primer feed - trust me you're far better off affording a Dillon 550 , hornady l&l, or even an rcbs- besides, a fellow in southern Ontario who has 2 ? spoke for it- these are NOT tools for amateurs.
hey, I'm not FOOLISH enough to throw that press out- YOU ARE
you sure you're odinson and not lokison?
this isn't your first parade either- a few years back you had a 1000 that you had problems with, and we told u how to fix that, but your solution was to return it and get the loadmaster= so the evidence point's that it's you
