I agree that Lee makes several products that are well worth the money and will give the kind of service we need. Of course they also make pieces of junk that I wouldn't give away to my worst enemy and some other things halfway between the two extremes.
Their dies are OK. The "unbreakable" depriming rods are hardly unbreakable though.
I like the auto-disk measure and think their latest upgrade will make this measure perfect for me (previous versions did not hold up well).
Can't beat the case trimmers (matter of taste).
I like the auto-index press. My all steel version is almost complete and I wish Lee would realize there would be a market if they upgraded the materials in most of their stuff. Keep the pot metal for the budget challenged, and offer quality equipment for those who load a lot.
The Perfect powder measure is garbage IMHO.
Their scale works, but takes so long to settle down that I'd quit reloading if I had to use it.
My 3 year old broke whatever their "C" frame press is called. Can't say I'd give it high marks.
Their hand priming tool is OK for the occasional user, but I wear them out every couple of months. RCBS is the only hand tool for me.
The factory crimp dies for handgun rounds is good since it will resize oversize rounds. The abilty to easily crimp in a separate operation is just as good.
The factory crimp die for rifles is nothing but trouble waiting to happen IMHO. People need to understand about case tension and quit worrying about the crimp. This also goes for handgun loading as well, but there's a large number of people who think a heavy crimp actually holds the bullet better when loading for autos.
I love their set of powder measures, especially when the static is eliminated. These are great for the times when I weigh each charge, since they will let me dump a load of powder in the scale that's close to what I want.
Their manual offers more data than most since I believe it's made up of data borrowed from several different sources. The beginning of the manual doesn't contain that much good information, but is very comical as they proclaim their stuff as good or superior to Dillon. Always good for a laugh.
Their equipment for bullet casting offered me a way to try out this activity for less than half the price of Lyman and RCBS equipment. I wouldn't have given it a try otherwise. Their moulds are well worth the price and would pay for themselves if they wore out every 1000 bullets (they don't). Their melters tend to drip, but get the job done and have at least one advantage over other melters costing 6 times as much. Can't say much for their sizers and lube except that it's a cheap option that's easier than using a lubrisizer and works very well for the .45 auto. I've "outgrown" that method, but it does work.
Anyway that's my 0.02 on the subject based on what I've seen myself.
