I'm thinking about getting one. If you have one, do you like it or not?
I do have one. I have used it to decap a bunch of brass and to swage the primer pockets on a bunch of 556 brass. It seems to work very well so far. I have also purchased the priming system and bulge buster outs. I have not used them yet. The brass that I have deprived was 38 split, 357 mag, 44 mag, 223/556, 9mm. I have also sized some 327 Federal Mag brass.
Love mine have one of the first ones shipped. See my u-tube channel Andy79Z28 - many other videos out there with tips and tricks. I have added motorized bullet / case feeder. Really speeds things up.
Check out the thread “ today at the bench”. There is a nice review of the app by mbaker a couple days ago.

Love mine...works awesome for processing pistol brass. With the 4-tube feeder and collator, I can process around 2000 rounds per hour pretty easily. Especially if I use a little bit of Hornady One Shot and keep the case feeder assembly clean. I use it for swaging as well.
Hey, that’s me!Quote:

Lee recently announced a roller handle, so that’s already on preorder for me because then it’ll clear my Forster seating die, so I can seat and crimp 308 on it once that comes in.
If you’re on Facebook, there are a couple groups devoted to the APP, and there’s a lot of good info there.
Do you happen to have the part number for the roller handle?Quote:

Let us know how you like it when it’s up and running. I currently do all my loading on single stage press and could very easily see this being a nice addition for when I kick out revolver rounds. Keep us posted [emoji106]

That's my plan. Looks like it should arrive on Monday. I will get it mounted, take some pictures and let you know my thoughts. I'm not planning on reloading on this press, although Lee states it can be used that way. I'm just going to use it for case preparation. I have a Dillon SDB & a 550B for loading.Quote:

But for the money, it should last long enough. The slide that delivered the case to the fingers was a little rough, but a little work with a finger nail file and some graphite, problem solved. I'm very happy with the press !! It fits right with the others. Now all I need now is a white press and I'll have "red, white & blue !!! LOL I'm sorry folks, no pictures. I've done it in the past but can't get them to appear now. The older I get the more stupid I become! This computer stuff is way above my head.
