I am looking for a primer catcher for an older Echo press, similar to the older Pacific and Lyman Spartan presses. Any help would be appreciated.
At one time, Echo, ( EC Herkner) made presses for Pacific, RCBS, CH.
I have a newer RCBS primer catcher but it doesn't fit properly and many primers fall through the open areas.
i have also looked at the 3D printed catchers but they are close to $50 by the time they are shipped from the USA.
Thanks in advance, Jack
 
I bought one from CH4D for an old C press of theirs. Of course there were numerous changes over the years and I had to grind quite a bit off the insides of the U channel to get a better fit against the press. Rest of opening was covered by adhesive backed copper tape which is thicker than alum tape.

Received the roller handle today. Balance point is still too far forward for the old CH press linkage. so I still have to tie up the handle in the up position, But it feels nice.
