I just bid on and won a used RCBS junior 2 single stage press from ebay. All I have are Lee producets including dies/shell holders.
Will Lee shell holders work in this press?
Thanks
Steve

They work fine in mine.
Thats all I ever use in it.
Lee hand primer shell holders won't work.
But the standardd press shell holders do.

Standard Lee shellholders won't work in a LEE hand primer.
ETA: Deleted a misleading statement. Thanks NeuseRvrRat for catching it.

Standard Lee shellholders won't work in a LEE hand primer. They will work in a RCBS hand primer.
have you ever tried Lee shellholders on an RCBS hand primer? my Lee shellholders won't fit on my RCBS hand priming tool without a lot of cussing, fussing, nudging, beating, hammering, etc. they do not have enough radius on the edge around the bottom hole of the shellholder. RCBS shellholders fit great. i guess i could use a die grinder or something to radius that hole on the Lee shellholders.

My bad. I believe I probably did use RCBS shellholders on my old RCBS hand primer, not Lee shellholders. Thanks for catching that. That primer is gone, replaced with the universal model.

I think all brands of modern shell holders fit all brands of modern presses. There may be differences in thickness and the primer hole diameter.
