    Thanks for that KJ ... definitely not berdan. The primers all came out eventually, some just didnt want to !!!

    I'll get what I can out of it. Hopefully I can get a part from somewhere ... Anyone know where to get hold of some spares for lee dies ??

    Try Reloaders Supplies in Auckland, otherwise I got my one at Tairei Arms in Mosgiel.
    If no-one has it in NZ, it doesn't take to longer for Lee Precision the Innovative Leader in Reloading Equipment to ship it to you

    Hmm just looked it up

    Freight will be a killer on an item so cheap. Maybe you NEED something else?
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone

    Petone Gunshop could be worth a try, they stock a fair amount of Lee stuff.
