    LEE sprue plates

    Am I crazy? Does someone on this site make steel replacement sprue plates for 6cav LEE molds.

    It appears the answer to both questions is "yes".

    Rick's steel sprue plate and steel sprue plate lever handle replacements can add years of useful utility to a Lee six cavity mould. Most noted advantage is lessened strain upon the sprue plate bolt. Also, I suggest Rick's steel mould handles. Comfortable.

    Ya'll be of good cheer,

    Here is another member.

    I have several of them and they work a treat! Got both sizes, regular hole for most of the molds and two small ones for the 22 calibers.

    I was very disappointed in the plates I received. The holes were not positioned correctly for the 22 Bator, and although I ordered the two sizes, they all came the regular size. Frankly, due to the waiting, and non-response I just gave up on this vendor. The list owner was very helpful in at least getting my order filled, but clearly the vendor had other goals and my order correctly made and sent was not one of them. The plates were well made, just not correctly made so was a waste of time and money. I would not recommend this vendor to anyone else.

    Hmm, those small details are what get you.
    Sorry for the misstatement.
