The thread about the Lee Auto disk powder measure got me thinking about other Lee gear. My knowledge is limited, but the only manufacture I can recall that makes a nice line of hand held reloading gear is Lee. I do remember some hand presses by another manufacturer, but I don't recall the name.
What I hope to come up with is a set of options to do reloading without an elaborate bench set up. Should you have to head for the hills, hauling your powder, cases, primers and bullets will be enough of a task without trying to strap that big bench to the top of the ATV.
Again, my knowledge is limited, but I do recall that the Lee gear would not full length resize, which shouldn't be to much of a problem if you are just loading for your own weapons. But something sticks in my mind that you might want to full length in semi-autos to ensure ease of chambering as the weapon cycles.
Anyway, I'd like to get what experience we have with this kind of setup. We would need to decap, size, expand, prime, charge, seat and crimp along with case maintenance type of chores like case trimming and primer pocket cleanup.
I have seen much, if not all, of that gear from some vendor or other....most from Lee as I said, but I am sure I don't have a line on the best options for all of that.
If anyone is interested, let us know what you know.
Thanks and take care.
