Need help chasing down some shellholder inserts and a spare tool for my old Lee priming tool.
The one Lee Precision offers now is called the"auto-prime" and has a primer tray attached. I use it for those calibers not covered by appropriate shellholder in my original tool.
The original tool is made in dull finish white metal, you manually feed each primer into cup. The threaded shellholder inserts are letter stamped. True, manual feed is slow but you can't beat the positive feel and control of seating depth.
I want a spare tool as backup. I've heard that the tools can break (used mine since 1985) and haven't found anything better.
If anyone peruses the SINCLAIR catalog you'll see a very similar hand priming tool for a great deal more money than this tool sold for.
Presently have 8 shellholders and hot for 3 more in B, M, and N.
Any ideas folks?
