    Those things are great. I must have loaded my first 3000 rounds on a Lee loader. Great gift!! Somebody will be happy.

    I was extremely lucky to have logged in when I did. All I can say is blackriver is a stand up guy. Wish I knew where he lives in GA, as I would like to shake his hand.

    Except for the shotgun ones, I've never reloaded ammo on a Lee Loader. I have a few sets of them, guess one day I'll have to get one out and give it a whirl.

    My BIL loaned me one to get me started on 38sp back in the early 80s. I was a dirt poor college student and bought lead swc and primers 100 at a time. Anyone care to guess what powder? U got it. 1# lasted me a long time.

    The used model 28-2 (highway patrol 5”) is still my go to for slow fire accuracy.

    Same here. My first metallic reloading was done for a 222 with a whack-a-mole.

    Yep, except for shotgun ( 10 gauge), these are best to give to someone just starting reloading so they can prove they can do it. When they upgrade to a press they can pass it on as well.

    Agreed.. I do want to find them in shotgun at a reasonable price to get my son started. I started on a shotgun loader, and reloaded many a shell with them. Kinda lead me to the load all... still got a few of those... and use them for all my slug loading...

    I started with a Lee Loader in '69 and now have 7, along with my 4 presses, 14 die sets and 1.5 tons of assorted reloading tools. I used my first to load quite a few 38 Specials for mebbe a year before I got a press. I think Lee Loaders are the best thing to come around since smokeless powder...

    I started loading with a 20 ga. Lee Loader in 1959. I have no idea how many shells I loaded but it was a bunch.
