Press Features

Breech Lock Quick-Change System — Change dies in seconds with a simple twist of the wrist. No tools required. No die readjustment. Works with all brands of dies.

Ergonomic Design — The improved lever eliminates stooping at the bottom of the stroke. Priming happens at the front of the press where the action is, using Lee's proven Lever Prime System for instant, tool-free priming.

Through-Ram Primer Disposal — Spent primers fall through the ram and collect in a convenient tube. Keeps your workspace clean and your press frame free from debris.

Proven "O" Frame — The strongest and most popular press design. Four-inch opening provides maximum hand clearance. All-steel linkage with adjustable lever length. Built to last.

The Carbide Die Set

The included 3-die set features color-coded Smart Lock bushings for instant die identification:

• Carbide full-length sizing die
• Powder-through expanding die
• Bullet seating die

Carbide dies eliminate the need for case lube on most cartridges, saving time and reducing mess.
