Case prep centers opinions

[Coldfinger]

So I have been in the market for a long time for a case prep center. Particularly since I've started shooting my ARs more frequently. It is amazing how quickly you can run thru 250 rounds or more with a semi-auto. Case prep for my bolt guns is a non-issue as I only shoot 20 at most from any one of them at any one time. My goal with my bolt ammo is accuracy and repeatability. So everything is done slowly and methodically. My neighbor bought a Lyman case prep center and I watched him prep over a hundred rounds in short order. So, I ordered one. My question here is, what is the general opinion regarding this piece of equipment? I know Lyman but I've never required the need to contact customer service. How is their customer service with regard to warranty? Does anyone have extensive experience with the Lyman case prep center exclusively? If so could you share with me your opinion as it relates to quality, easy of use, longevity, durability, replacement parts ect. I am quite sure if I search the forum I might find some data but I'm looking specifically for opinions and information on the Lyman case prep center. Thank you in advance. Coldfinger

I've had one for about two years and so far so good. It's the only case prep center I've used, so I can't give any feedback re comparisons. I haven't had to contact customer service yet, so i I'm no good there either.

I like mine, it does all I need it to do.

I just got the Frankford Arsenal a week ago and I have already prepped 500 rounds just goofing off in the evenings. Works perfect.

I run a reloading club and have had 30 students using and abusing my Lyman Case Prep Center for two years. Not one glitch, hiccup or hesitation, great piece of gear. We had a terrible lot of Lyman cheap .223 die sets that have all been sent back to Lyman for replacement so I was kind of sour on them for a while but my Case Prep Center has been a winner.
