Lee Precision 223 Remington Pro 4000 Press Kit

Awesome unit especially for the price. with the addition to a powder check die this thing runs flawlessly for my applications. this is my 3rd progressive press from lee. beware it does take a little tuning and figuring out the setup. i prefer to keep as a dedicated press and only use for one caliber per press. tip for the powder throw, you can screw the 1 lb container straight on rather than filling up the container provided. then you will never mistake what powder is there.

Loaded thousands of rounds on it. 40,9mm,223. Had 2 years. Sometimes parts wear out as expected and are easily replaced.

Works really well and once you get it dialed in it is super consistent and easy. I see the negative comments and I recommend if you are not sure how to set up watch the Lee tutorial videos on Vimeo. Also, only work on one section at a time …for example Seating take a break- powder measure take a break.

I was trying to set it up and it the arm broke almost instantly also I saw something about a chain which was not included as well.

I have spent hours trying to load shells. I've been loading for years and thought I'd try the progressive. Shell feed drops more than it loads, primer feed is terrible dropping them and loading sideways, powder feed is very unpredictable, bullet press works as does the shell eject. Hard to screw up those two steps. I can load in my single unit much faster and more accurate. Thoroughly disappointed. Don't waste your money.

I'm sure there are better progressive presses on the market, but this one is affordable and gets the job done. Normal maintenance required. Pick up some Hornady One Shot for lubrication. Plastic parts break, so order replacement parts directly from Lee.

I got this press for Christmas and took about 2 hrs to get it set up right. Once it was setup it took a few rounds to get the process down correctly. There is a learning curve with it, but if you put in the effort you will be able to load ammo that will work really well. I gave it a 5 star because I'm not very mechanically inclined and still was able to make it work. You wont be disappointed.

I usually don’t write reviews, but I felt obligated to share my experience with this product. The feeding tubes are horrible, they drop more shells on the floor then they put on the press. It does not come with a crimp or die so you cannot complete the ammo even though it claims it comes with everything you need to remanufactured ammo. The powder dispenser is very inaccurate. I would not recommend this product. I gave it a one star review because I cannot give 0.
