Glad it helped

You're welcome!

Absolutely the best instruction on the Loadmaster ever! After taking a break from reloading, I was in a panic because I couldn't find the one from 7 years ago. I was so excited to find this one because no one else comes close. Thank you!!!!

I bought mine two years ago when I started doing pistol action shooting. Made some mods. Polished all moving parts. Works slick. Sad it was just discontinued. I'm buying extra parts also. It will last the rest of my life

I've had that can since about 1977. I used it to oil the bearings in our old GE boiler pump and tool motor. In those days, bearings were not permanently sealed, but had little spring loaded covers to oil twice a year.

Thank you.

I have a single re-loader RCBS Rock Chucker single-stage press....I'm in no hurry to re-load . . .passes time nicely ..I got Lee dies !😎

For sure, their manual is junk, without these videos I would never have got mine working

Thank you, and God bless.

Good luck with your new venture! If I can offer some tips for success, keep in mind that folks come to learn, and aren't interested in intros or music, and your listeners need time for their brains to absorb what you're saying. Don't rush. Speak at a relaxed conversational level, mount your camera solidly, and don't pan around or zoom in and out. Carefully frame each shot, avoid gimmicks, get a good remote mic, and invest in good lighting. It takes a while to get up to speed and get comfortable, but it's fun.

Awesome thank you..much appreciated and points taken .👍

Thank you. It required lots of camera setups and hours of choreography, and Benny was getting very impatient with me!

@@GunBlue490 yes he was!

@@GunBlue490 your attention to detail is noticed. Thank you!

Thank you. Much really depends on what volume of ammo you intend to go through. A semi-progressive turret press is ideal for turning out 50 rounds at a time in the course of a relaxed hour, and is quickly adaptable to any caliber. If that is something that fills your needs, I'd recommend that you take a close look at the Lee Classic Turret press. It uses inexpensive turrets that drop in just as with the Load Master, and it has the option of running as an auto rotation semi-progressive or as a single stage press, simply by lifting out, or dropping in the center spindle. Mine, now 17 years old, replaced my steadfast RCBS Rock Chucker that I used for almost 40 years, but the Lee is far quicker to use and produces the same high accuracy ammo. If you have not loaded before, I strongly advise that you start with a simple, possibly convertible, turret press. You will always find use for one simply to establish small test loads, process cases, etc. The dies are the same, and can be moved over. A fully progressive press is only suited for mass production of loads once a good one is found, and doesn't work for such highly important tasks in load development. While I fully utilize my Load Master for making large batches of ammo, the Lee Classic is the heart of my loading bench, which I consider essential and indispensable. I'd part with the Load Master first. Changing over to different calibers with the Load Master is pretty straightforward, but still requires about a half hour or more to convert. Some progressive machines either cannot be, or involve significant labor and readjustment. I hope that I was able to help!

@@GunBlue490 Yes you were, and I thank you for your generosity with your wisdom. I hope you & yours have a great weekend.

Good choice!

You are very welcome

At the current prices of ammo hitting up to $50 per box and more, even the cost of Hazmat shipping from available large suppliers makes reloading a bargain. I've had no trouble finding the necessary ingredients from such sources, with perhaps a small wait on the call list.

@@GunBlue490 ya, looks like it’s starting to get better,,,,I only shoot handguns due to medical issues, prices are not too bad for 9mm, 38 &357 still hard to find and still high ..

If that were the case, I wouldn't be using one. I load many hundreds of rounds at a time with absolutely no mess or load variation whatsoever. That disk or drum measure will drop loads as precisely as any weighed charge, to within a tenth of a grain. Perhaps you might look into a more reliable powder dispenser.

Leakage does not occur with the Auto Disk at all.

It's largely a matter of preference, that's all.

It's a different press.

As to the first question, you have me stumped with those bullet designations. As to the second question, one must size a case before any other step. If you have already sized, decapped, and primed off the press, it appears that you have answered your own question.

@@GunBlue490 Sorry, I guess my first question was not very clear 😞 It looked like the choice for the powder charge was No. 5 220 MCB RNFP 7.0 Grains But there was also another choice of powder charge, No. 2 220 MCB RNFP 4.8 Grains I was curious why the smaller amount powder charge was not chosen over the larger one of 7.0 Grains to save on powder. Also, the reason I was asking about the powder drop in station 2, the Loadmaster Press Manual says to not use station 2 for the powder charge. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on that.

Sorry, can I ask you again I don't understand why the 220 weight bullet with the 4.8 powder charge was not chosen. They appear to be the same bullet. I would want to save powder.

I use CFE223 for the .223 with 55 grain bullets. Varget for heavier bullets. I like AA#5 for the 9mm.

No.

Never chamber any round except that which is specifically on the barrel, or in the case of certain appoved straight wall cartridges, the ammo that is of exact, but shorter case length, as in 44 Special and 44 Magnum or 38 Special and 357 Magnum. Bore size has no correlation to chamber dimensions, which governs ammo suitability.

@@GunBlue490 thank you very much

Investigate the new Frankford Arsenal X-10 progressive 10 station press, which is ready for all calibers at $999.99 and includes roller bearing shell holders for all calibers and even a primer pocket swager with auto case feeding for all calibers. I'm afraid it will put Dillon out of business. I just placed one on order from OpticsPlanet for 10% off at $899.95, free shipping. Nothing even comes close from anyone.

I use many, but the Lee Modern Reloading is my first choice.

But use Lee dies. They are much better all around, especially the factory crimp die.

Yes, but people like to learn how to use the ones they have. Many folks have told me over the years that my video inspired them to set up machines that had been sitting idle.

I'm disheartened to learn that! Parts will remain in production.
