Lee Six Pack Pro 357 Magnum Tips and Demo

[@noneya135]

Thak you for the video. The camera angels were well done. I have 3 suggestions to make your reloading that much more enjoyable. 1. Bolt your bench to the wall if you can. Any wobble will cause inconsistencies/issues. 2. Inline makes a bin barrier that will stop the rounds from bouncing out of the bin onto the floor. They are well made and well worth the price. 3. On your upstroke go slow right before the shell case begins to spin. This will help with cases wobbling and powder spillage. Hope these suggestions help. Happy reloading!

It's fine to take it slowly when learning. Thanks for the video!

Thanks for the demo video. My new Six Pack is still in the box while I wait for the Inline Fab mounting plates arriving this afternoon. I too have the Lee Classic turret on which I've been reloading since 2008. I retired 8 years ago and figure now is as good a time as any to finally go "progressive press" -lol I have nothing but good things to say about the turret and will continue to load some calibers on it. I do have the wall mount gizmo coming soon from Inline. They make phenomenal products IMHO and their bench mount system seems far more robust than Lee's. I thoroughly enjoyed and learned from your 'down to Earth' presentation.

I'm glad the video was helpful. Looks like we are in the same boat in a lot of ways. Enjoy

Thanks for the hints. We all need to keep on learning.

[@gunslant1269]

You bet - thanks for watching

If i didn’t already have a loadmaster I’d be interested in this one. I use my Lee classic turret press more than the loadmaster though.

[@johnwilliams40]

It's not about being fast,don't let anyone tell you that.Produce safe,accurate ammo at your own pace and enjoy,that's what its all about!

[@gunslant1269]

Right - I do not think speed is the goal. Just looking to get a rhythm for it.

[@ceez33167]

great vid, i also just moving from the classic turrent to the six pack. apprciate the info.

[@bulletbob790]

Good job you know when you make a video little things will go wrong😂

[@vhoward1122]

If I am loading and have to step away from the press for a restroom break or a phone call, I will leave the shell plate in the full up position with the handle down. That way when I come back, I know where I am and it leaves the cases in the dies so nothing gets disturbed. You just continue like normal. No forgetting to place a bullet or anything else.

[@gunslant1269]

Good tip!

[@timspence3597]

Make sure you order spare driver clutches (same as the 4000 ABLP), plastic and they are easily damaged.

The shirt you are wearing is a "Henley" style which is popular with cowboy action shooters. I saw your videos with a Ruger Blackhawk and a Uberti Cattleman; have you checked out a cowboy action match?

[@gunslant1269]

Interesting - didn't know that. No, haven't looked into it.

[@jawsmod]

I had to send my first one back to Lee to get fixed. They got it fixed and it is running great! FYI. I see you are getting the powder "sprinkles" from your auto drum. Play withe the adjustment a bit. If that doesn't work call Lee. It's not sprinkling much but after 100 rounds you will have a mess.

[@gunslant1269]

Yeah, I have had problems with that as long as I've owned Lee products. Taken those things apart more times than I know. I have fiddled with the screw a lot and have it at the tightest it will go before it binds up.

[@woodybear8298]

Another YT'er drilled a small hole just behind the shell plate and put a small wire through the hole to prevent the primer slide from going all the way forward.

[@tkarlmann]

Do I have to go through an entire die-setup to change calibers?

[@gunslant1269]

Only the first time, because the dies must go into the bushings. Once set in the bushing, it's very quick to swap them out. But there are other time consuming operations that must be done depending on which caliber you're changing to. Yesterday I switched from 38 special to .44 magnum for the first time. I had to change out the primers and the primer guide. Had to change out the shell plate. The case collator had to be reset for large cases. Had to readjust the powder check. Change out powder and re-measure. Plus set up the dies for 1st time use. Took a while. But, it was the 1st time doing all that and I wasn't 100% sure how to do everything. So, next time will be faster.

[@Jim-oo7dk]

For whatever press you end up spending about 3 times the base price to get all the plates and dies and bullet feeders....

[@louisleoncini1033]

I have to get one of these with my hands I can not use my Dillon 550any more.

[@abrampl]

black powder is my goal ...
