I just received my Lee C press last Saturday, for use with the universal deprime die, and you can tell it’s very inexpensive, the only really bad part about it is that when the primers are ejected they are supposes to fall into a slot in the press then you have one of three options, have a hole in the bench for the primers to fall throw, attach the press with wing nuts and, remove the press when it is full, or mount it on a block and push them out from under it when it is full. The real pain it the a$$ part is that sometimes the primers will fallow the ram down and fall on the floor; I just put my primer bucket under it to catch these one’s. It would be nice if the primers would just fall straight throw the ram and, into the bucket every time. The ram is not very smooth but it should polish out with use. For $29.00 it will do the job I intend it to very nicely.
i just ordered one to use with a collet type puller, leave it set up and fix my mistakes as i make them. bullets cost too much to trash a bad one anymore.

The C press was my first. Go easy on the little handle stops/ears they will break off if you ham hand it.

I don't have hands I have paws. (This is where I would put a funny picture of a bear or monkie doing something.)

Hey Steve.....sound familiar to my post about the spent primers hitting the floor. Didn't I remember you saying something about buying a real machine (Lee) to avoid this problem. Yep, those that live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones......

Is that a concrete floor? If so then it's no big deal to sweep up once in a while.
For that little 25 acp I got recently it is a perfect press .
I like that the ram stays right where you leave it .
