could it be the quality of the american youth??to many have lived the good life maybe we need areal disaster.
I also believe it is partialy the fault of gov controls.clean air is fine but when it drives companies out of business or out of the country,then it is ruiness.
The Lee products are made on state of the art machines,and by using alluminum
in the molds and die castings where posible he can produce at less cost.and he does not have to grind reamers.the old way of doing things make it harder to keep up.I like Lee products but I do have most others.having been a machinist I understand how things are done.there are to many jerks at the low level,and there are some very good lads here that can make you molds as good or better than the big boys.you might try them.
