Rifle Case Collator for Lee's Universal Feeder

Post by GWS »

A rifle collator for Lees Universal Bullet Feeder.





Would be easy for Lee to make this....it works 100% for .223 and .308......and most likely others with similar case lengths.

I posted a how to make your own on THR.org if anyone's interested.....or I could copy it here....

Very interesting! I'm using the LM for the 7.62x39, it would be a good winter project!

I removed the phpbb video coding, it was not working for some reason. Links remain.

Nice design! Should be possible to make in a simple tool. On the other hand, LEE doesn't seem to be happy to receive help from anybody.

Yeah... to the last. The topic is probably better off in the "Progressive" forum.

I hadn't searched for a rifle collator for at least a year. So, this topic caused me to google it again. What I came up with is the American Accurate Case Collator Feeder. Load-Masters users are using it with the 223 Rem through 308 Win, so the 7.62x39 would fall in between. I went ahead and bought one and will report back. Almost Mini-30 reloading time. I found it on Amazon and eBay both.

Move it if you prefer....I don't mind.

I looked at those once. At least they are a little bigger than Lees which makes it some easier not to drop cases in upside down.

As soon as it arrives, I will give it a test run and report.

Well, that was easy!

The American Accurate Rifle Case Collator swallowed up the 7.62x39 cases, filling the tubes in seconds.

I just did a search for this and can't find it on Amazon. Also checked EBAY, same thing. Do you know if they are still in business?
