    Lee Quick trim Woo's

    I just received my Lee Quick trim Deluxe with the 7.62X39 quick trim Die. It does NOT work as advertised... The short version of why it does not work properly is because the cutters that chamfer and bevel continue to cut the case and shorten it even after the portion of the cutter that is...

    7.62X39 with Accurate 2200 & VMAX Bullet

    I'm looking for loading data for the 2200 powder with the VMAX .310 123GR bullet. Hornady does not have any data for this bullet with the 2200 powder yet. I have searched everyplace I can think of, but haven't found anything yet. I even tried Load Data.com. I just fired off an email to Accurate...

    bullet runout

    I have done a search but did not find what I was looking for. I am relaoding 7.62X 39 in my LCT with Lee dies. I know (think) this is not an ideal press for loading rifle because of the movement of the turret. It loads great handgun ammo but leaves me with anywhere from .03 to .015 runout. My...

    7.62x39 with 2400 Alliant powder

    I have almost a whole pound to 2400 sitting around so I thought I would see if there was any load data for the 7.62x39 round. I found several loads on loaddata.com and wondered if anyone here had any experence with 2400 in 7.62x39. I know it is not the first choice in powder for this round but...

    Lee 7.62X39 dies

    I just received my Lee dies for 7.62x39. This the first rifle cal I've loaded...lots of 38 sp and 357. My question is regarding the Lee factory crimp die for the rifle. It leaves small indentations in the brass that I don't like. This cannot be good for the longevity of the brass. Is this...

    7.62 x 39 questions

    I picked up some used 7.62x39 brass yesterday at a local gunshow. 650 to be exact. Also got 200 - 303 Speer 125 gr .311sp in the sealed box they come in, along with the brass. all for $100.00. I figured given mess we're in it couldn't hurt to have them on hand. I have reloaded aprox 10,000...

    CCI VS Federal primers

    I'm gathering the components to load some 357 mag ammo. My Lymans calls for CCI mag primers. Is it ok to substitute Federal 200 mag primers for the CCI's if I can't get the CCI's?

    357 Load w/ 2400

    I would like to get some feedback on the load below. The question I asked was for a target load with a lead bullet 158gr flat nose wad cutter using 2400. I'll be shooting these out of my GP 100. One of my buddy's that I trust flipped out when I ran this load by him. He made it sound like...

    Lee Classic Turret over rotates

    My LCT just started to over rotate, but it only does it after the crimping die as it rotates to the decapping die. I have inspected the turret for burrs, dirt, junk of any kind and all is clean. The ball bearing that snaps into the turret is working smoothly. The turret operates smoothly and...

    Lee Classic Turret Powder Checker Die

    A few month ago thanks to help from this forum, I finally realized the Lee factory crimp die is not necessary. I began to think of a way to make a powder checker for the now extra hole in the turret. So here's what I did. I took apart the FCD and removed the collar inside. Next I drilled a...

    Lee 3 hole turret

    I'm wondering if Lee makes a conversion kit to change my Lee Classic Turret to a 3 hole. The reason is due to the fact that the Lee factory crimp die is not needed for the 38 sp because I've adjusted the seater die to crimp in the same cycle as it's designed to do. I looked on the Lee site and...

    Bad dies, bad brass or bad technique?

    Well, I've reloaded about 850 rounds of 38 sp in my Lee Classic turret with the Lee dies. My load is 158gr SWC and 3.2 grains of N320. I'm very happy with the load in my S&W 649. All the brass I've reloaded is once fired or more. I clean with walnut shells and Meguiars polish for 4 hours and...
