    Looking for best price on a...

    lee loadmaster .45acp
    along with .40 S&W dies.

    Best I've found is Natchez @ $218.50

    I'm beginning and this is the press the guy who is teaching me has. (lets not begin a brand war)

    I'm trying to put a shopping list together and would appreciate you input and additions.

    Grafs has a better shipping cost, even though the individual prices are a little higher. It comes out ahead by about $11.

    $227 - Loadmaster w/45acp
    Graf & Sons, the reloading authority, has a wide selection of reloading supplies, shooting supplies, ammo and more.


    $29 - 40 S&W dies
    Lee 40 S&W Pistol 3-Die Set includes Carbide Full Length Sizing Die, Bullet Seating Die, Powder Thru Expanding Die, Universal Shell Holder, Powder Dipper and Instructions/Load Data. Note: can be used to load the 10mm Auto. Back out the bullet seating die and powder through expanding die 1 3/4 turns. 10mm Load Data is found in "Modern Reloading". Can also be used to reload the 41 Action Express. The powder through expander and bullet seating die would have to be backed out approximately two turns. The load data included with the dies can not be used with the 41 Action Express, it would have to be obtained through one of your favorite powder manufacturers.   WARNING: DO NOT USE reloads in Glock or similar guns with chambers that do not fully support the cartridge due to the intrusion of the feed ramp.  


    Shipping is only $5, regardless of the order size.
    So the total is $261 for Grafs versus the $271.50 from Natchez.

      Natchez has them for $218.49.
      The Hornady L-N-L is $380.
      You could watch for a used one on ebay or craig's list.
      Go to loadmastervideos.com and read their manual and watch their videos so you know what to do when you get one.
      In general, I have heard that it is best to go through the priming system and remove any burrs or mold-flash to ensure that it works smoothly. Some people get them working great and some people are quickly discouraged.
