Since this post covers many of the categories of the forum - thought it would be best to say Hi here and list the Lee stuff in my reloading room
Started my reloading life in the early '60's with 3 Load All's & 3 Loader Rifle Die Sets. Since then - Lee products have 'grown'
* Using close to 100 Lee molds, only 2 were bummers and one was a Big Lube custom one
* Haven't counted but maybe close to 30 Lee Die set - yes, I have many rifles in different calibers
* All my rifle calibers are primed with the Auto Primer
* All my rifle calibers are loaded with the Perfect Powder Measure and a 3 Hole Turret press
* All BPCR brass is mouth expanded & powder is compressed with the Lee Expansion Die & TOTW plugs
* All my bullets for multiple calibers are resized with the Lube/Sizer with many custom sizing dies
* Probably over 40,000+ cases have been decapped with the Universal Die. I decap every case before they go in the rotary tumbler ... I like clean shiny brass!
* For 45 ACP & 45 Colt reloads on the Dillon 550B, the Lee Factory Carbide Crimping Die is what I use
* I borrowed a RCBS die set to seat & crimp H&G-68 bullets for the 45 ACP - the crimping sucked. Bought the Lee Die set and the rounds seated & crimped to 0.01. Haven't had a failure to chamber a round in my 1911 yet
Need I say more? Spent a lot of money on Lee equipment and am a satisfied user

Welcome John Boy. Sounds like you may be "mentor material".
