After reading all the info provided by forum members several times, perusing virtually every post about them on the interwebs and watching a ton of Youtube videos, I went ahead and ordered a Load Master 9mm setup. Do I see a Dillon, Hornady or RCBS in my future? Yes, but that will be years down the road and long after I get my money's worth out of this.
The plan is to keep this set up for 9mm and look at .45 as the next caliber after I get very comfortable with it. I'm keeping the Classic Turret for the time being and using both as needed. I'll make another plate that matches my existing one so swapping them out on my bench won't take anything at all. I foresee loading larger quantities at one sitting instead of just what I need for the next outing.
I don't have an engineering degree but am the engineering manager for a wood products company that does $60m a year. It's owned by a very "frugal" (i.e., cheap a**) investment group, so I usually have to achieve the end results by tweaking and modifying existing equipment and processes. So, it sounds like the Load Master should be right up my alley!
And, I found a RCBS 9mm bullet feeder locally for 20 bucks, so that will just add to the tinkering.
Thanks again for all the replies!
