I am one of those that slam Lee. I started loading my own in 1965 and have had some of about every brand of reloading equipment on the market and Lee is the onlw one I won`t buy any more. Years ago I found their hand primer and thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it didn`t take me long to wear it out. I bought the second one and wore it out and sware off of them. Their presses are just to lite and cheaply made to hold up under some of the abuse I give a press. I have had trouble with their dies also. I did try their collet die for neck sizeing ans it did work, but I didn`t like the looks of the neck and it was more of a hassel setting it up than my old neck sizeing dies. For someone than will shoot 1,000 rounds in 10 years Lee would probly hold up, but for someone like me that loads several 1,000 rounds a year Lee just don`t cut the mustard.
