Not to long ago I took the plunge and invested in a Lee Loadmaster; a 5 station progressive press with a working priming system. Very jappy with the machine and it runs like a dream.
Fast forward a year or two. Lee releases the 6 Pack Pro. A replacement for the Loadmaster. Excluding the dies, no parts are interchangeable between the Loadmaster and the 6 Pack. Last week the local supplier informed me that since the release of the 6Pack, no more spares were produced for the Loadmaster and once the current stock has run out, the Loadmaster is just so much scrap.
Now, I can understand no longer selling the Loadmaster, but am I wrong to expect Lee to at least support the models out there for a few more years? Dropping support on such short notice on something that was on sale not that long ago seems like a dick move to me.
