Quick Trim(2)

We do not recommend "fixing" cases fired in pistols with unsupported
chambers, because there is no way to make them safe once they have
bulged. The case wall is thinned where it bulges, and resizing the
outside of the case back down to the correct di...
Our Turret Press, Reloader Press, Hand Press and Challenger press all
use Universal Shell holders to hold the case on the ram. The
appropriate holder comes with all Lee Dies (except RGB). For those
that desire it, we offer a full set consisting of 11...
Essentially, this tool is a mini-lathe. Using the shell holder that
comes with the appropriate case length gauge, a deprimed case is
mounted to this unit in the same way they are mounted to the lock stud
that comes with the cutter.

The 3 Jaw Chuck will only work for .625 or smaller rimmed diameter.
If larger than this diameter, the rim of the case wil not fit in the 3
Jaw Chuck.

* 50/90 Sharpe
* 50 Rem

To get the 9mm Luger to work with the Bulge Buster Kit, a 9mm
Makakarov Factory Crimp die would need to be custom made. The cost is
$30.00 plus shipping & handling and we would need a bullet seated in
an empty case. The item can be ordered here [1]

Only Boxer primed cases can be reloaded using Lee Precision tools.
Boxer primed cases can be identified by a single centrally located
flash hole in the primer pocket. Berdan primed cases have two or more
smaller diameter flash holes located off cente...
If a die has "pick-up", where brass is stuck to the carbide insert, or
is galling cases, remove the decapper pin and scrub the insert with a
stiff bore brush until clean. This can happen with brand new brass or
brass that is too clean. It is better t...
Bulged cases are usually caused by the sizing die squeezing the case
down too far in diameter for the bullet used. Measure the case mouth
inner diameter after the case has been sized, and after the case mouth
has been flared. It only needs to be ....
No standard resizing die can re-size the entire case. There is a shell
holder that is an eighth inch tall, that amount of the case can not
enter the die, so it is not resized. At the bottom of the die, there
is a radius which leads the cartridge into...
The Chamfer Tool [1] is used after case trimming to deburr and chamfer
the inside and outside of case necks. It can also be used to remove
the crimp from primer pockets of Military/G.I. Brass. Our Chamfer Tool
has now been redesigned to accept even m...
The chamfer tool (catalog #90109) can be used to remove the crimp from
the primer pocket of military cases. It can be power driven with an
attachment intended for the Dremel Moto-tool. Look for the sanding
drum attachment, which is a small rubber cyl...
Crushed case necks are usually a result of square bottom bullets, and
not having chamfered the inside diameter of the case neck. This
chamfer is what leads the bullet into the case without catching on it.

The cutters can be sharpened with a sharpening stone. The trick is
keeping the 4 blades the same length.
If you return the cutter to the factory, we will sharpen them for
you. Lee Precision

If you are having trouble getting the gauge into the cutter, take a
hand drill and lock the gauge into the chuck. This is just to give you
something to hold it with. Now screw the cutter on. They are made
tight so they won't work loose.
Large Cutter and Lock Stud is required for cases with a bullet
diameter of .459 or larger:

Nickel plated brass typically has a rough edge or burr around the
inside of the case mouth, which will score the expander plug severely
if this burr is not removed. Our Chamfer tool [1] (catalog #90109)
works well for removing the rough edge and it i...
When full length sizing cases in non-carbide dies, it is necessary to
properly lubricate the case and the inside of the case neck so that it
will not get stuck during resizing into the steel die. With a properly
lubed case, our Reloader Press or B...
Steel cases can be reloaded with any of our Carbide dies, as long as
they do not have berdan primers.

Some foreign made cartridge cases have come to our attention that have
a flash hole diameter of .050 inch or less. This is smaller than the
diameter of our standard depriming pin, and consequently if one tries
to deprime/resize these cartridge cases ...
If you can see a series of wrinkles around the bullet and just below
it, this is a sign of an excessive crimp. Just back the die up
slightly.
We do not sell replacement parts individually for the Zip Trim as the
internal mechanism needs to be assembled at the factory. Please send
in your Zip Trim to us and we will repair it for you.
