[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1501064, member: 2736"] The Lee hand press is at its best when sizing small cases, and seating bullets it was not intended to be used to full length size large cases because of it's strength and effort to operate using big cases, hence the COAL length limit. It is a great tool for the range when working up loads if you prep the cases and prime at home and carry the bullets, powder, scales to the range and start working up your powder charge by loading one at a time and based on velocity and pressure you can load the increased powder charge until you reach your goal of velocity or pressure limits without having to pull all of the over pressure loads you loaded when you get back home. It also works well to neck size only on any case within the length limits of the press. also you could use it to reload on a hunting trip if having all of the necessary components was not more trouble than simply loading more ammo than necessary for a normal hunt. I like to use mine on/with prepared cases sized and primed at home so the hardest part is already done. Just me J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
