Re: New 2020, Lee Bullet Sizer!!!
Great!!
Looks good, but I've already got 13 or 14 LEE push thru and about the same in Lyman. This spring I added the NOE system to my room and filled in the blanks spots with NOE dies. The NOE dies are $9.75 and Al offers dies about every ten thousandth, so great selection, and nose sizing dies also. So I'm going to stick with NOE and expand it as money and need allows. Already have 5 or 6 single stage presses laying around and don't need to mount a specialty press. Looking forward to removing the Lyman as it is, more space!
But if I was starting out............ I like LEE stuff.

Re: New 2020, Lee Bullet Sizer!!!
Yeah, the reality is setting in for me. I already have many custom dies, this complete set for both the Lee and Lyman. Going to PC, the Lyman use has been zero for over a year and it needs to leave the bench for eBay. The custom dies were very expensive for the Lyman. Ugh.Knighthawk wrote:Great!!

Here are the sizes I use.
I have "Birthday Pricing" at MidwayUSA this month. The sizing inserts are $7.43 each at that pricing, but I'm still 14 dies short! Better to stay with what I have, but that press is neat looking.

Re: New 2020, Lee Bullet Sizer!!!
I stole this on cast boolits . I have no information but what is here .
"I just got done talking with Kathy at Lee Precision, and she confirmed and clarified a few things for me, and I figured you guys would appreciate the information.
What I can tell you: The press will be available as a plain model and a deluxe model. The deluxe model will have a built in bullet feeding assembly. I believe the plain model will have an easy upgrade path to the 'deluxe' features. The press will use a new low cost sizing die bushing set-up. It will be launched officially at the end of December.
What I don't know: The MSRP (I suspect $100-$150 but that's pure speculation on my part), whether they'll offer a collator of any kind (I would guess no) or actual ship dates, but I assume they will have some stock on hand at launch.."

Re: New 2020, Lee Bullet Sizer!!!
Wish they would have posted a video showing these new items in use but I guess we have to wait for the official release. To bad the primer pocket swager is made to only work on the breachlock press' as well

Re: New 2020, Lee Bullet Sizer!!!
I'm a wait and see... why have another thing mounted to my bench. The current push through sets I have work fine with my lee press. The big plus might be the speed at which you can feed the lead through with the deluxe version bullet feeder. The first youtube video might help me decide.
