New Lee Products

[Glock20]

Not sure if this has been posted before but I came across a Video showing some new products Lee is coming out with.

I'd like to see more of the case trimmer. I wrote them asking about availability and was told-
"We are not sure when they will be released for production. Right now they are only in the prototype stage. We don't believe there will be anything definite until later this year though. We are sorry for the inconvenience"

I've got to hand it to Richard Lee, the guy is always coming up with a new tool.

I watched the vid & like the looks of the bullet puller.

The trimmer looks OK, but I like my powered one.

 

[Brian10]

Very interesting stuff. Thanks for the link.

I wanna know how that bullet puller works. It looks like magic makes makes the bullet leap out of the case neck!

+1 on that super-slick bullet puller. I can see that bad boy joining my collection of fine Lee products.

 

[kelbro]

Cool stuff there.

 

[JimKirk]

Similar to Forster

That bullet puller looks like it would work very similar to the Forster Fast Bullet puller.

Dang! That's some good stuff there!

I already use the Lee Bench Plate, it's a great time-saver and space saver too!

Anyone know when/if these are coming to market?

The trimmer looked pretty handy and fast. Not only trims but chamfers at the same time. That would be great on my Classic turret. For rifles, just having 2 dies mounted on the turret is kind of lonely looking.

Love that trimmer!!

I was trying to find a trimmer like that the other day but I already picked the old Lee trimmer now. I think I will try to wait on that bullet puller though.

Thanks for sharing guys- interesting video. Anyone here have experience with breech lock? I haven't tried it yet...

 

[RandyP]

I have the breech lock system on my 50th Anniv Lee press. The bushings work just fine and dandy. I picked up an affordable bushing for each die I used. Of course once I got very practiced with them I upgraded to the very fine Lee 4-hole turret. -lol- bit I feel it was money well spent.

Lee is very good reloading equipment and I have been buying it for years. They always coming up with interesting products.

Thanks for posting that link.

Lee does come out with some interesting products, even if some of them are copies of old designs. Like the bullet puller, i bet the origional will be a higher quality tool than the copy. Of course, that doesn't mean Lee's won't work though.

It looks like the bullet puller pulls the bullet out on the downstroke. The bullet you see popping out isnt the one that just got pulled...its the previous pulled bullet... You can see it sticking out the top of the puller before he puts the first round into the cycle.

 

[Shoot&Ski]

Thanks for the link! This stuff all looks amazing. I would definitely buy that bullet seater and factory crimp die all in one. That would save a whole step on the press when I want a factory crimp. The bullet puller looks like it might be the slickest thing since sliced bread. No more waking up the neighbors just trying to unseat one bullet with my RCBS inertial puller.

RCBS seaters have always been a seater/cripmer die all in one...

The puller has already been on the market for MANY years too...

The wording IIRC was factory crimp die. For rifle stuff, that should mean collet. Having it seat and then do the collet crimp is interesting to some probably.

I called LEE this morning and the puller and trimmer won't be available until early NEXT YEAR!!!

I'm just guessing, but I wonder if they have to check patents to make sure they are not infringing on someone elses design.That could take some time. If it is too much like the Forster, they may have to aquire permisson to use that design. I'll be patiently waiting for it's release
