Sorry, guys. I just have to vent.
This evening I've spent 2 hours with my Lee Pro 1000 and managed to load 47 rounds. I am completely underwhelmed by this product. What a piece of crap.
Although things went reasonably well last time I reloaded, this time I got primers sideways, primers not feeding, powder spilled everywhere... a nightmare. I had changed NOTHING on the press. So was it the way I was pulling the lever? the way I was holding my mouth? what I had for dinner?
I've read the posts where guys say they've loaded thousands of rounds on this press without incident. I take my hat off to them. However, I would counsel anyone considering a progressive press NOT to buy the Pro 1000. It blows.
