Does anyone know if they ever made one of these? I've got a S&W Victory model that I would like to be able to reload for but they no longer/or never did make one for that round.

They did according to http://leeloaderdata.com/ that sell Lee Loaders old and new and provides a web archive for data sheets: 177959

There's one for sale on leeloaderdata.com, too.

Dang $65. I'd snatch it up in a heartbeat if I had $65 at the moment.

$65.00....I guess the $9.99 Lee Loader has left the building.

I was thinking of getting one for my 38 S&W top break but I can get a set of Lee Carbide Dies for $33.00 ! I have a Lee hand press so I'm going to rethink the whack-a-mole loader.

I loaded ammo for my .38 S&W Enfield with a Lee Loader as a teen in the 1970s. I miss them both. Best, Thomas.

I really enjoy my Lee loader and plan on getting à few more calibers, but $65 seems high to me. If I thought I could I'd just machine one, but something about that seems risky to me.
