I received a Cabelas gift certificate for Christmas and I am considering buying the Lee Classic Cast Reloading Press.

To those that own one of these presses, is it a good press?
What do you like about it?
What don't you like about it?
Are you able to produce repeatable ammunition?

Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks.

Is it a good press? Yes
What do you like about it?Sturdy, loads accurate ammo, and the ram prime works well.
What don't you like about it? Have no dislikes on this press.
Are you able to produce repeatable ammunition?Yes, very repeatable.

Very good press and dollar for dollar, can't be beat. Not even in the same category as Lee's cheap presses. I'd buy this press before a RCBS RC sofa

Have a Good One,

Reloader

I have had one for over a year. It does everything I need quite well.

Love mine ... definately better value for money then the "green presses". Only slight irritation is primers that go flying when the primer arm isn't in the ram and your de-priming.
Cheers...

No problems with mine. It is the only press I have ever used though. So I don't have a comparison. I like it.
