I've had a Lyman T-Mag for about 20 years . I load everything from .223 to 30-378 on it . They're plenty strong and durable . If I had a dime in my pocket for every round I've loaded on it , there's no way I could keep my pants up ! I have never primed on it , so can't comment on it's performance in that area . Having said that , there are very few avid reloaders that prime on their press . Handheld units are inexpensive and way more efficient . I prime on a seperate press with an Auto-Prime II , which I think is the slickest rig going . Of course if you're a couch potato , priming in front of the TV isn't an option with it .
