So I purchased a Lee .223 die set online and it came in the mail today. I was excited to finally start pumping out for .223 on my Lee Pro 1000, but soon realized that the powder through die did not have threads to screw in my powder drop. Now im getting ready to order again, but I am having trouble identifying the right dies to by for my lee pro 1000.

Thanks in advance for your help

I assume you got a 2 die set; full length resize & bullet seater? And you want to use use the auto disk powder measure to dispense the powder?


You need the Rifle Charging Die http://leeprecision.com/rifle-charging-die.html in the second station of the Pro 1000

either that or it's a crimp die not a powder through

I have a new set of Lee 223 dies in my hand. PN 90502. There is no powder through die... You get a FL sizing/decap die, a seating die, and a factory crimp die. Maybe you have a different set, but I was just trying to help clarify.

As NorBrat said. You need the rifle charging die.
