I'm looking for opinions on the new Lee cast iron press.

It looks almost to good to be true at the price, $59.95 at Cabellas.

Comments anyone, thanks in advance.

Rod. :-)

I'm new to reloading, but I researched press info thoroughly, this press got the best recommendation from the most people, not only due to its price but the quality of the press too. It works great for me loading for 22 Hornet to .270, 7x64, 30-06, 45-70 and 45-120. :wink:

I'll ditto what Quick said.. great press. Of course there are others just as good or maybe even better but not for that price.

I have one and would not hesitate to buy another, great press hands down.

I just bought one about two weeks ago. I'm new to reloading so I wasn't sure what to get but after reading the reviews from others I thought I couldn't go wrong for the price

After reloading 50 rounds of .270 I have to say everything went great. I had no problems setting it up and it worked just like advertised. I have no doubt that many other presses would have done the same but for just starting out, this press was more than perfect. I'm sure it will handle all my future needs.
