As a new owner of a Loadmaster, I'm already looking at accessories.
Looking to get a bullet feeder for 9mm Luger/9x19 loading (to start). Confused by some of the options, and wondering what bullet feeder to buy.
Using 9mm Hornady, .355 inch caliber, .55 inch length. Looks like I need the bullet feeder for .365 bullets to .60 length, correct?
Now if I need to change caliber/bullet size, I just need the feed die and fingers for the new size, correct? And the four tube adapter fits all of them?

If you change anything, even different bullets within the range of the kit, you will probably need to adjust something.
I would suggest that you get a couple of spare Fingers (#BF3415) because soon or later in the setup you will probably crush them and once they are smashed the function of the feeder stops.
The bullet feeder was an addition I really wanted to add to all three of my LMs. I only shoot cast bullets and because of the lube on the bullets I had a continuous set of issues with them at some point; whether it be to one another in the tubes or to the assembly itself. I tried a couple of different treatments such as corn starch and mica but that only seemed to gum things up worse. Ahhh... but for a bullet feeder...
