Not.

I may be found dead in a ditch, but by God, they will find me and my rights in a PILE of brass.

Well if not, then it is time for me to become a member on the star reloaders forum, and see if one of the members there can make me a shellplate, sizing die, and try to find dies for another caliber..
Good dedicated press in its day, but from a practical standpoint, it would be easier to swap out calibers on a dillon or hornady ap for pistol rounds..
But I hear that lee makes dies for the old phelps presses, which were copies of stars..
I don't know what model it is, but it's literally an heirloom. I'd referb it and make a lamp out of it before I sold it. That's coming from a guy that doesn't have many heirlooms for what it's worth.

I'll probabally get a new seating stem for one.. and use it..
And see if I can find a shellplate and dies if I want to convert calibers..
If not, I'll use it as is.

Having a single stage or two around is always useful even if you have a turret or progressive. Things like removing the crimp from military brass, or loading low volume super precise ammo seems easier on a single stage. At least for me.
I also de-prime on a single stage, keeps the sand and crap out of the progressive.
When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
