Would you buy a used Loadmaster now ?

The idea of buying a used Loadmaster or two keeps popping into my head.I've got 2 progressive presses setup, both are Hornady Pro-Jectors [ with flawless priming systems ] one for large primers, one for small. It would be ideal to have two more setups in the other two calibers I use the most. I''m looking at the Loadmasters because it seems like the used price has bottomed out, with complete units going from between 4 and 5k.I used to own Loadmasters, I had three in total over the years, and I could never get the priming system to work reliably. That was in the time of the round primer tray.These days they seem to be fitted with the triangle tray.How reliable is the priming system on the Loadmaster these days with the triangle primer tray ?For the record, I always said that if Lee had just focussed on making a working priming system for the Loadmaster, they would have completely taken over the progressive reloading press market with it.

But South Africa is a special place...I still get guys looking for parts for 3 hole turret presses

I think I've still got a box of the parts of a disassembled almost unused 3 hole turret press. Not sure how complete it is. DM me next time someone comes looking.
