The thread on the Lee Pro 1000 gave me the idea to ask this question about experience and quirks with the Lee Loadmaster here.
I have a friend who is contemplation moving up from his single stage to a progressive press. We shoot IDPA together and we go through a lot of ammo in both practice and weekly matches.
We're only loading 9mm with maybe the addition of .45ACP at a later date. We're loading plated bullets...either RMR or Xtreme.
This friend was first looking at a Lee Classic Turret and is now looking at maybe going with the Loadmaster...the Pro 1000 was never in the mix due to the limited number of die stations. I'm loading on a Hornady LNL AP and our other buddy is loading on a Dillon 650, so we can help him with the transition to the progressive machine.
Please don't recommend going with any Dillon, it has already been considered and removed from consideration.
I'll been looking around a bit for information...I looked at the Loadmaster before going with the LNL...and feel at least somewhat knowledgeable. What I'm looking for is a heads up on.
1. Setup quirks to be aware of
2. Modifications that make running it smoother
3. Aftermarket additions to consider to improve it's performance
We're already going to mount it on an Inline Fabrication Ultramount...with all the referrals I've sent his way, I should ask for a discount
