Lee reloading products are pretty inexpensive compared to other brands. Is their stuff any good, or is it cheap junk?

I wouldn't say cheap.
Inexpensive, yes. And you do get what you pay for.

But if it's all that you can afford, and you aren'texpecting to load match-grade on a shoestring budget, it'll get the job done.

I wouldn't call it junk, i'd call it pretty good value for the "average" guy getting started out in reloading.

I remember back in the 60's sitting for hours on end, pounding out reloads for my rifle so i could afford to "shoot some more"useing one of those little Lee loader sets they sold back then for about 6 bucks!

I suggest you ask Big Country about Lee products. He has a VAST experience , and loads for so many cartridges.



i'll let you in on a secret...Big Country won't say how long he has reloaded, or what he reloads. But rest asured, he has a VAST experience level, he even says so.

Dollar for value the equipment of theirs that I have had has been just what I paid for.The only point at which they have the best is the price on the other hand every thing did what it was supposed to. Lee

Now, your getting it lady. I was wondering how long it would take ya. Well, your a little thick skulled, not the most honest girl, little insecure, and need validated, but you got it finally.

Now, all you need to do is pay me for my time for the mere price of 20 dollars. Think of it, you will be validated even more, and won't feel so bad about being little slow.

Nothing wrong with Lee if you ask me. I have tried RCBS and Lee when loading for my 7mm and didn't see a difference, except for price.

Many people start with LEE and then purchase RCBS but I don't know anyone that started with RCBS and then bought LEE.
