I have two of these. They were free. If it's free it's for me! I use them for some black powder shells and also for certain non-tox loads where I don't want to change my presses around. They are fine for a few shells. Maybe a box max, but I wouldn't want to load more than that.

I've got several in shotgun and rifle cartridges. Sometimes I'd pick a quiet day at the range and take one out to do some load development for a new rifle. A few different powders and bullets, a scale, primer seating tool, and a chrono and you can get a rifle pretty well dialed in. They can produce some very accurate loads that transfer well to the home press. Very slow though. If someone brought out new ones for shotgun in 2 1/2" 12, 16, 20, and short 10 I might be a buyer.

Here's the short 10 Lee Loader at the bargain price of $239 and free shipping.

I've got two; both were given to me as well. I believe I have all the dies etc. for each to load 20, 16 and 12 but not, I think .410 - I'll have to check. I've never used either but have always been glad to have them in the "just in case" category. But considering what I'm seeing here I may have to check out the market.

Oh: I was thinking of the Load-all which is what I have.

:shock:

They have been going for $169 to $240 for 10 gauge 3.5” and 2 7/8” for the last two years. I’ve been trying to find one reasonable. I had two people offer them to me for around $75 plus shipping last year and did not have extra funds at the time. I just traded a .336 cast bullet mold that was free to me and two pounds of pewter that I had about $10 invested in for a 3.5” 10 gauge lee loader. I sold 30 pounds of lead (I got the lead free) for $110 to pay $115 for a 2 7/8” 10 gauge lee loader with some wads and shot cards thrown in. Glad I grabbed them when I did. I believe they will keep going up in price. I had a lee target loader model in 30-30 that was thrown with a bunch of reloading supplies and 45 pounds of smokeless and black powder I picked up at a sale for $40. I sold the lee 30-30 target loader on eBay for $130 a few weeks back. I also just traded 15 pounds of lead for 13 pounds of #5 chilled shot and sold 15 more pounds of lead to buy 11 pounds of nickel plated #6’s. I’m keeping the rest of my lead.
