I would be willing to purchase a good copy of one for a 25-35 Win (108 scoop red), 45 Colt (new ??scoop), and a 300 Win (black scoop). If anyone needs one for 257 Rob, 380 acp, 32 acp, let me know. Thanks

Do you mean the Dipper chart? http://leeprecision.com/cgi-data/instruct/Dippers.pdf

If you buy the scoop kit for 12 bucks, it comes with all the scoops and a dandy slide chart for powders, just like the one above.
Buying the scoops one at a time are 5 bucks each

No, if I understand the OP correctly, he wants copies of the charge charts that came with the loading kit... 1 dipper per kit with a list of charges of various powders that the single dipper drops. I think I still have one for the 25-35 you mention, but not for the 45 ACP or the 300 Win. I'll try to dig mine out.

Froggie, Thanks I would appreciate that very much. Dick's first book does not have 25-35 load data in it for the ladle.

P.K.

Also for those looking to the dippers and powder slide chart, not all powders are listed but a free PDF from Lee is available.


I just looked for it and it's gone. The old PDF is up now for some reason. http://www.leeprecision.com/cgi-data/instruct/Dippers.pdf

If anyone has an idea of when the desired charts were available, use the Wayback machine to find them.

Type or paste in the web site URL, then pick a year, month, day, and snapshot.

That is a nifty tool I never knew existed.

Lift the styrofoam out of the box and look under it. Many times the paper work is hidden under the styrofoam.

That's the one common drawback for these kits. The instructions and the charge cards get lost.

I don't currently have any of the charge cards you asked about. I used to have a 45 colt kit but I traded it for a 410 kit or I'd post it for ya. I did put up photos of most of the instruction booklets from all the various styles on another thread. It's in this same forum section under "lee loader instructions". I've forwarded copies of instructions to quite a few people over the years and figured it was about time I just posted them somewhere easy to access.

I am lucky enough to still have the charge card for mine. I am missing a few dippers. Handy little things they are.

And from a purely technical point of view, the OP should say the charge tables sublimate, not evaporate.

Thanks for that Rick. Maybe we can build a thread that has some of these. I will scan some of mine when I get the chance. I will get the 380 done first for you Rick.

e-mail them to Wiljen. He will put them on castpics.

Great idea!
We should put all of them there.

Suo Gan - sorry, I don't have kits for any of those calibers. But, I think it's a great idea if they could all be compiled in to one link in some way. And I agree . . . the charts seem to evaporate! In years past, I'll bet half of the used kits I'd run across at gun shows were lacking the paperwork - and often times the dipper as well.

Try leeloaderdata.com. Found it about an hour ago. It doesn't seem quite complete but has a lot of them.

I don't have any of the rare ones. This is the data for the Lee Load All Jnr, only date I can find on it states 1985. Obviously one desires to be sensitive to Richard Lee and other Lee family's intellectual property. This item is not longer made however, is 30years old and most powders are no longer available so I beg their grace in providing it:

I have also placed a pdf of the full scan a castboolit shared drive:

is an interesting link. The data they hold is for the odder calibres, I presume they don't carry the common data sheets (like 30-30) as you can still buy the Lee Loader kits for these from Lee and the above arguments about supporting intellectual rights for Lee . However they don't have the data sheet for the shotgun kits, which you cannot buy from Lee.

This is some data provided for Australian reloaders, using the Nobel powders:

Lots of data sheets, good guy to communicate with also.

LEE still sells sheets for current models, and it doesn't hurt to ask about the discontinued ones as well.

Also, I looked, picked up the Styrofoam and sure enough, instructions, my bad for not looking.
