Tis a sad day today in the Reiver house hold.
Whilst bumping some 308 brass my Lee press passed away at the handle fixing :cry: .For those doom Sayers who said it would never last they were right I have only had this press for 9 years.
I shall give it a proper burial tomorrow for one taken at such a young age.

I feel for your loss as I too had one die on me at the tender age of only twenty. :(
 
Thanks for the condolence 8x57 on my loss .Why do the good die young my press and I have loaded 22 hornet,243,308,270 and 444. We were looking forward to reloading for my 9.3x 74 together but I will have to do that with his little brother the Lee hand press.

all is not lost you can still breath life into it and keep the dream alive, I made a new toggle for the handle to keep mine going
 
Had you bought a RCBS it would still be your loyal companion and will most likely outlive yourself.

Quite so !
I have had my trusty RCBS Rockchucker for over 40 years, it is in perfect working order and I am a clapped-out broken-down old bonebag on the way out being 81 next month.
