Reviews & Ratings for Lee Precision Load Master Reloading Kit for 223 Remington Rifle — 6 reviews — Page 1

WOW! That's all I can say right now on how fast I got this product! First off I was lucky enough to get this product before it sold out. Then the shipping was wicked fast. It shipped on a Monday and I got it that Friday! The product itself is amazing also. I'm pretty new to the reloading community and I am so happy I made this decision on the Lee. Not only was the price right but the product itself is amazing. I will definitely be ordering more from this company and I will be on the Lee bandwagon!

He has an extremely comprehensive set of videos that will take you from A to Z with this reloader. Many tips to make it run better.

Well, I bought the machine on 2016 and looks like Lee Precision listened because I didn’t find the problems I was expecting, granted, it took me some time to understand how to adjust the indexing, but once I did (without filling or sanding, just using a 11 mm wrench), it worked quite well.

• Indexing is smooth, but my opinion is based on that this is my first and only progressive that I operated at any capacity;
• Didn’t have any issues with the priming system, only the ones caused by me when learning the machine function;
• There is plenty of adjustment available to adjust the case feeding assembly, contrary to what I saw in YouTube;

I did some changes, actually one; I replaced the bolt that controls the primer seating depth with one without raised lettering, $0.11.

I bought the 223 kit not only because I wanted to reload this caliber, but because it comes with the ...
