Considerations & Trade-offs
- Requires Lee Liquid Alox and a reloading press to be used, so it is not a standalone sizing solution.
- Designed for .458" cast bullets only, which limits it to a specific bullet diameter.
- Fits standard 7/8x14 thread reloading presses, so compatibility depends on that press standard.
- If used on the Automatic Processing Press (APP), a separate catch container must be supplied.
