If you are using any flat nosed or semi wad cutter type bullets, just mount any Lee bullet sizing die in the press and insert the bullet punch for that particular die into the die from below. Wrap...

Noted. The problem was that the shredded lead was kept outside and exposed to the elements. If the lead was dumped out of the buckets and spread out so as to allow it to thoroughly dry under roof for...

I averted a disaster 3 weeks ago when I.was melting shredded lead into ingots. The lead was given to me by a fisherman who had stored the lead outside in gallon buckets. Apparently, moisture was...

I tried this technique the other night on my 6 cavity Lee mold and made over 500 bullets. about 2/3rds the way through, the tape below the cavity peeled off. The remaining strips in between the...

Lee's 10-15-13 response to my inquiry:

Based on your description, it sounds as though the mold may have been overheated, causing the alignment pins to float. The pins can be driven back into...

YhI have a lee 2 cavity mold that casts 124 gr rn .356/9mm. After casting a little over 500 bullets the blocks no longer align properly. The blocks line up properly on the vertical plane but not...

I've been looking around for some load data for a .32 ACP, 77 gr (Lee) LSWC and W231 but haven't been able to find any yet. The mould is a Lee but there is no listing in the Lee manual for this...

I use a Lee Challenger Breech Lock single stage press. Subsequent to posting my initial question, I removed the seating stem from the .270 bullet seating die and discovered that the stem seats the...

Lee's website states:

The bullet seating plug that comes with the die set is as close to generic as we can make it. If you find that the bullet seating plug deforms the nose of the bullet you are...

I've got two issues with bullet seating that I would like your input on. I'm using Lee dies and am not satisfied with the consistency and, with respect to one particular caliber, the way it deforms...

One of the many hazards of mixing your own lube. Arguably more dangerous than a flash fire.

Will smoking a clean ladle minimize the crud buildup?

I think you'll have to destroy the pan to get the ingots out now that they are stuck.

I bought cupcake pans with the teflon coating and dumped the ingots out while they were hot but solid. Never...

Recluse, thanks for sharing your homemade bullet recipe.

Here's my experience and some of my observations:

I purchased a can of JPW from Lowes' for $5 and cooked off the solvents in the JPW in...

That's the one. If I use the top band, the OAL will be less than the specified minimum by Lee Precision. My concern is that if the OAL is less than what is specified, I may be creating a dangerous...

Sorry, I posted my question while running off to work and didn't have time to look up the specific boolit. It is Lee Precision's TL358-158-SWC. I don't think it has a crimping grove per se, just...

I spent some time casting boolits for my .38 special this weekend and tried to reload some of them last night. While reloading, I ran into a question about crimping. The Lee Precision specifications...

I'm getting ready to reload some .32 ACP rounds for the first time and have a question about crimping. My Lee Precision Die set comes with a bullet seater and, with what I understand, a roll crimp....
