Got fired up today and pulled out both of the new Lee mould handles. Ran down into the basement and set up the Sieg X3. Laziness overcame me, and I checked the Lee handle with a Lyman mold. Huh, it fits. Next, the RCBS mold, very snug, bet that if it heats up to temp, the handles will be almost immovable.

RCBS mold handles mic about .295, Lee handles mic about .302-ish.

too many things

yea a flat file works good . may have to take a little of the inside front to let it close.

Nothing is ever square, but it is close enough. I now have three pair of modified Lee handles.

Same here. I will never buy a set of RCBS / Lyman / Saeco handles when I can buy Lee's at less than half the price and just modify a little.
