Most likely you do, i am one of the 4 Admins on the Lee FB page/Group.

ljnowell, This type of failure is actually very common and is not a result of over-tightening the shell plate. The repeated stress of sizing during the cycling of the press or sticking a case in the sizing die can cause this type failure. 25K is pretty decent the carrier did not owe you much...

Save a Penny do the correct modification for the case collator: 1/2 PEX tube fits in the holes, reducing them and eliminating inverted small calibers. The 1/4 x 1 1/2 carriage bolt and fender washer keeps any from falling directly in during loading

American Accurate, LLC is a new manufacture whose 1st product is a new and improved collator for the Lee case feeder on the Pro-1000 and Load Master presses. I have to admit when I 1st saw this product I was skeptical that there was anything to be improved upon the Lee Red Collator! So when...

GarySTL; The Collator is Lee's standard dump and shake model with 2 mods: 1. A shield over the tubes that prevents cases from falling in before they orient correctly. 2. 1/2 pex tubing placed in the down tubes to restrict the dia for smaller shell cases. .32, .380 9mm etc. Shaking the...

Ijnowell, I skip back and forth from time to time. I have not been spending as much time posting on Castboolits or Thehighroad. I felt this project deserved a broader exposer.

pics of the AutoPrime II Still my favorite system after 20 years, one is almost always mounted on a Lee Reloader Press on my bench!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OhqQw1CZuw This project turned out very well and I am very pleased to help an older person continue reloading.

iShoot17 and GarySTL, yes it is a little on the fast side in the video. That's why I ordered a inline speed control valve and reduced the supply line to 20psi. The action is a good deal gentler now. Made me laugh to on the 1st test! That is the smallest piston made and it is actually rated...

The valve is a generic 2 position 5 way and I am using my shop/garage spare air compressor with a 1/4 supply line. The test video was shot @40psi (A little too vagarious), it is now turned down to 20psi. I may rig up a old fire extinguisher bottle as a air storage cylinder and see how...

This in my initial test for fit and function. It went much better than I had expected, nothing broke and function was as intended (albeit a little more vigorous then expected). I never really cared for the case feed mechanism on the Load Master even though It works and I have no problems...

It can be done, it's a PIA to cut and trim down the brass. Back in the late 80's I picked up a War Finish Webley .38 S&W along with a Lee Whack-A-Mole reloading kit but no brass. My grandfather did have plenty of nickel plated .38+P, so trimming free brass was a good idea at the time...

100 gr XTP-HP A Page from Hornady's own ballistics lab circa 1989. Back in the day when I needed load information I would just call Hornady!

Smokey, When I got my 2nd Challenger press the handle looked rough too. So I chucked it into my drill press and hit it with a brass brush. 5 min later the handle looked like new and I coated a dab of RIG Wax. No more rust. I have also used spray on Lemon Pledge, it has a bonus feature of...

It's called a "Universal Charging Die" part number 90273. It will work with rifle or pistol cartridges. but does not expand the cases. It is chain operated so it works on the Pro-1000or the Load Master only. I do not think it would be too difficult to rig a return spring on it for use with...

Hands down my all time favorite dedicated priming system. Lee no longer sells the Auto-Prime II, but it can be found on E-bay from time to time. It has a good feeling ,plenty of leverage and positive seating. One has been set up on my bench on a C-Frame continuously for 10 or 15 years! My...

Yes, unfortunately it's a case of discontinued parts, so Lee will not replace them for free. On the up side the new parts are of a better design and somewhat stronger. Here is what you need to order: (1) OF3221 - Ram Pin - http://leeprecision.com/ram-pin-step.html (1) OF3613 - Lever...

Here is the web location of the new .45 Cowboy special brass: http://cowboy45specialbrass.blogspot.com/ It's not cheap! I purchased 250 of them for use with my Kirst Remington 1858 Konversion in .45 ACP. The above statements about what the cartridge is are correct: a .45 Colt case...

03fatboy, Welcome to the wonderful world of Wildcats. This is why I stick to WC's that you can just size/form. Back in the day I remember my grandfather reaming cut down .308's on a drill press using a little stand/shell holder that bolted to the presses table. I think it was made by Lyman...
