    lee sizer

    i tryed to order a few lee size kits from mid usa only to have them denyed for shipping reassons. i am guessing that it is becouse of the lube they ship with them cant go on a plane.

    question is...is there a place where i can purchase just the sizer and plastic boolit catcher alone as i want to explore the possibilitys of diff diameters with them as they apear to be a fairly easy item to resize with a reamer.

    thanks

    Lee will ship them to you directly. I had the same problem with midway, a couple of dollars more but you get the whole package.

    ............You won't be happy with a reamed finish, trust me The actual sizing area in a Lee push through is less then 0.10" wide. Oiled carbide paper on a split dowel in a drill motor will get you where you want to go fairly quickly. That is unless you're wanting to take a .451" out to a .460". Then it'd be a career!

    Or just ask Buckshot to make the lee style push-through sizers for you!

    The price is about the same and the quality is better!
