Those teeth or gears are larger than they look in pictures and mesh security. I have never had them skip let alone strip.Have you ever had the handle ratchet teeth strip?. It seems like a weak area?

I have stuck .308 HARD. I have quite literally ripped cases in half on the lee classic cast. The worst stuck case I have had I rigged up a ratchet strap and tensioned it as much as I could then whacked the case from the top with a punch and a 4 pound maul. As long as the bolt is tight that engages the teeth, your good to go. I believe they either use nylock or lock washers there. I don’t recall, but my press was bought second hand and dude stripped it to save 3 bucks on shipping. I had to reassemble and I had zero issues. One part looked questionable but was functionally ok, I asked Lee and sent a picture. I had a new part 3 days later. That ratchet setup is not a thing to worry about.Have you ever had the handle ratchet teeth strip?. It seems like a weak area?
Not to downgrade Lee, but they have always seemed entry level. So I’m hesitant to go that route. I do see a lot of positive feedback on the press. I am open to one. Just rationalizing.
