If you get the wrong brass, then no matter how hard you try you'll never ''push'' the primer out in your press with that style of die, in fact you'll bugger the die trying?

Thanks for that KJ ... definitely not berdan. The primers all came out eventually, some just didnt want to !!!

I'll get what I can out of it. Hopefully I can get a part from somewhere ... Anyone know where to get hold of some spares for lee dies ??


Tim

Try Reloaders Supplies in Auckland, otherwise I got my one at Tairei Arms in Mosgiel.
If no-one has it in NZ, it doesn't take to longer for Lee Precision the Innovative Leader in Reloading Equipment to ship it to you

Hmm just looked it up

Freight will be a killer on an item so cheap. Maybe you NEED something else?

thanks Puku .. goes without saying .. one always "needs" something else

Petone Gunshop could be worth a try, they stock a fair amount of Lee stuff.

PM me your address and I'll send you some better brass for free - should be kinder on your dies.
