Price, quality, thoughtful design, excellent customer service

I ordered this press just over 2.5 years ago. I've loaded over 8,000 rounds with it to date. I load 9mm, 45ACP, 22-250, .223rem, .243win and 25-06 - it handles all of those cartridges with ease. I have had no problems with this press other than a very small issue with the primer lever sticking. But if you remove the used primer and lubricate the press every 500 shots, it will run like new. The parts turning the turret are original and still strong. I am pleased with how well this press has carried. When it was new the tolerances were so tight I didn't feel any play in the piston or linkage, now it's starting to loosen but still feels tight. I suspect it will need to be rebuilt somewhere around 15,000 turns. I have spent a lot of time with this press and am very impressed with its design. I was skeptical about using a wooden ball as a pen, but now that I've used it, wood is the right material for the job. The adjustable lever arm clip allows you to vary the length of the lever to accommodate the leverage required for different cartridges - I'm setting it short for pistol cartridges where low effort and high repetition rates are ideal. Or you can lengthen the arm if you need more power to resize a small amount of large gun brass. I realize Lee did an excellent job of balancing quality and value. Yes there are some plastic parts in this press but I found them to fit the design criteria. One could spend more money on the press, but I see no reason for that. My rifles regularly fire <1" groups at 100 yards, so there's no doubting the press's ability to produce consistent rounds.
