I like them so well, I have LCDs for every cartridge I reload for except two. Lee Precision does not offer LCDs for anything 9.3 mm and they have discontinued the collet die for .45-70 Govt. The cost in money and wait time for customs is beyond what I want to pay


They also can be the source of neck tension issues.

get exasperated with it.
