Reviews & Ratings for Lee Hand Press 90685 — 6 reviews — Page 1

This is a good, portable handheld press. I use it at the range for sizing muzzleloading bullets.

I really love this product although I do not have a bench or progressive press. Did not want to start with the 150/500 dollar option so I got one of these. You will still be spending a bunch of money on brass prep, powder scale, dies for each caliber, and the ammo materials. I believe I will start saving money after a year or two of shooting, but it is very satisfying to make your own ammo.

I didn't want to have a dedicated bench or room to do reloading and I wasn't planning on doing thousands of rounds. This hand press works great, I can use it while sitting in a chair watching TV or at the table, I can also take it in a large ammo box where I keep it stored if I want to load somewhere else. I suggest getting a bunch of the quick lock bushings so you can have one on each die. I have de-primed (de-capped),re-sized, primed, seated bullets and factory crimped with this hand press.

Bought this after watching you tube video on "decapping" spent ammo where it was demonstrated.Had previously ordered rockford arsenal depriming tool from cheaper than dirt but sent it back after seeing it was made in china and had lots of plastic components.I use a Dillon 650 to reload 357 and the machine was malfunctioning too often due to spent primer debris gumming up the 1st station .Purchased this from Optics planet along with Lee depriming die and 38/357 shell holder,the order was slightly delayed due to one of the items being temporarily out of stock so I used the opportunity to call them and ad a Lee primer pocket cleaner to the existing order to take advantage of the free shipping,not only did they ad the item to the order the nice lady lowered the total cost to just over 50 bucks(less than original order)for the delay.What a great place to buy from,tool works great,very happy.Also this tool is totally expandable and can be used to reload most any caliber with proper attachments.

Wanted to try reloading inexpensively. This worked perfectly. Used Lee's dies and I have made several hundred rounds with this hand press and couldn't be happier. Not the quickest way to do reloads but definately the cheapest way to go.
