I do use the "Auto" part of the device, one on a Classic Turret, one on an Automator (a weird little Pro1000), and four on Load-Masters. I cannot speak with any experience with it stand-mounted or using it on a single-stage. I'm willing to bet I've cycled as many rounds as anybody through these things, and I've not had any problems with them that weren't user induced to include what lead to my initial disklike of them. I have not had anything fail or nor have I wore anything out. Besides, Lee has free replacement parts..
The auto drum is slick. So no leakage issues, Ranch Dog?

Nope. I'm using it with a very wide range of powder types.

I don't know if I mentioned it earlier in this topic, but I have an Auto Drum Finger Wrench from Titan. This tool gave me a better grip on the knob and I'm able to deliver a more consistent pressure on a drum change.

I made my own wrench, but that didn't solve leakage from fine powders such as H110 and #9. Still trying to solve this one.
