Full disclosure: I bought the Pro 1000 kit in 9mm with discount off MSRP offered by Calvin from Lee Precision. I paid full MSRP for 45ACP and .223 shellplates. Looks like Lee Precision finally addressed all the issues we have been complaining about the Pro 1000 over the years with the latest...

It looks like the big change is going from the removable 3 hole turret to a fixed 3 hole mount that uses breech block bushings. The other looks like it incorporates the indexing system from the 4000 press, with no index adjustments for caliber changes. I don’t know if the priming system is...

It's supposed to feed any size and any make of primer. Has anyone tried this yet? How does it work? Is it reliable? Can it be retrofitted on older models? Should we wait while the bugs are worked out? Looks like they got rid of the Auto-Disc powder measure on the 2023 version. Everything is...

Hey guys will the Lee 4 hole turret press die holder fit the Lee pro 1000. I am getting rid of a Pro 1000 press and have 6 of the 4 hole turrets

...starting to consider another progressive reloader and I’m considering these two models. My first progressive reloader was a 38 Special Lee Pro 1000 way back in the late 80’s. It did well for my needs at the time but eventually I went down the Dillon rabbit hole with a Square Deal B and a 550B...

Are they the same as regular dies?. They get some on sale for $16

I got a Lee Pro-1000 last year finally set it up last month and cranked out a few rounds. But so far I’m pretty disappointed and haven’t been able to use it a second time because of 2 problems. The bulk bead chain for the powder measure keeps braking. I have already bought replacements. And it...

I picked up a freebie Lee Pro 1000 that appears mostly complete with a few mods. I’m wondering if this press uses a plastic insert on the auto-index rod (underneath the turret) similar to the LCT? Currently, the turret is just sitting directly on the rod. Tried looking for a parts schematic -...

...equipment has sat at my parents house like the last ten years and I have recently got back into reloading once again. In my teens I used the pro 1000 to process pistol brass and I would use a hand primmer to seat the primmer and then load on a Lee loadmaster. (Why have I not got a Dillon 1050...

Does anyone load 40 S&W on a Pro 1000? Using the small case slider the cases won't slide completely into the shell plate unless I push them in and they tend to tip coming out of the holder on occasion too. It seems the small slider is sized more for 380 or 9mm and the large slider is too tall...

...and kid like to go along and shoot with me, so 300 or more rounds between us is not hard to do. I've read about some of the issues with the pro 1000 in the past, but I hoped the newer version would have been much better. After loading a few hundred rounds with the new press, I can tell you...

I've been loading pistol rounds on the Pro 1000 for about 9 years, so I thought I'd give 223 a try. I now know why most don't reload 223 unless they are going for accuracy rather than just plinking rounds. My first go at lubing and sizing left me with 4 stuck cases before I got better at...

Hi everyone, Working on a Lee Pro 1000 in 9mm. As the ram comes down and and the shellholder "clicks" into place, the vibration of that click tends to cough a couple of grains from the case that's moving from the primer/powder station to the bullet station. Did a quick google search and...

I'm a huge fan of the LCT and have loaded about 42,000 rounds on it the past 4 years or so, mostly 9mm but a lot of .40, .45 ACP, .357, .38, .380, and some .30 carbine, .308, and .30-06. I mostly shoot 9mm in local matches and when I'm teaching new shooters they mostly prefer 9mm so I'm hoping...

I just acquired a very used Lee Pro 1000 press. The press drops/clanks when the ram goes down. This is causing havoc with case-to-plate alignment, spilled powder, etc. As you can see in the videos, the ram drops/clanks about 1/4". The action is not smooth. The ram linkage has a some slop to...

Because I am a lazy person, I ordered a second Lee Pro so that I'd have one for small primers in addition to the one I use for .45ACP. Set it up this morning and ran 350 rounds of .357 and had only one flaw-- a sideways primer, which was entirely my fault because I let the primer channel go...

If you get tired of spilled primers when you try to insert the primer tray in the primer feed, you might like this little trick. Drill a hole sideways through the neck of the primer tray and insert a piece of wire in the hole. It holds the primers in until you're ready for them, then just pull...

My Lee Pro 1000 is currently set up for 45 Colt. Since I don't shoot many 45 Colt rounds anymore and am shooting a lot of 9mm I want to change the press for 9mm. (I primed over 700 rounds of 9mm this past weekend and have another 3,000 cases waiting to be loaded). I am saving the complete...

Does anyone know where I can get bushing for case feeder on lee 1000 for 9mm fits at the bottom when case drops down mine is missing thanks ahead
