    I've been reloading (round two from the eighties) for abut a year now. A friend loaned me a Lyman lube/sizer, in .452 for the 45ACP, and I wanted to do some 30 cal stuff. The Lee was cheaper than the die set for the Lyman, so being the cheap that I am, I got it, tried and love it. I put boolits in a large cottage cheese tub, squirt in a little LLA, do the martini shake, dump them out on the cookie sheet and let them dry overnight and pop the gas check on and run them through the sizer. I liked it so much that I got one in .452 and run them through too. Now I am not getting lube all over the place, in my dies on my press and I don't have to wipe each loaded cartridge. I work on the K.I.S.S. principle.

    I just got through sizing up a bunch of bullets (311284) in the Perfessors new press mounted gadget and it works great. I also sized the noses (.301) in a nose size die that Buckshot made for me a couple of years ago. Sure is great to have these guys around to make us still that nobody makes and sells.

    Buckshot is bringing me 2 to the NCBS next month . And I will be ordering another in the next day or 2 to go w/3 already hanging out on the bench.

    I don't care for the liquid lube either .

    I like them because they are alot easier and faster than lubing with my 450 and i just use alox lube for most anything anymore

    retired an rcbs lubrisizer in favor of the lee system...costs less, seats gas checks, no top punches and tons faster.

    liquid alox has performed at 1800 fps for thousands of rounds in my milsurps...wanna buy and rcbs lubrisizer?
