## Overview

The Lee Precision Breech Lock Challenger Press is a robust, American-made single-stage reloading press featuring an all-steel adjustable lever linkage and the innovative Breech Lock quick change die system. Its popular 'O' frame design provides ample hand clearance, while the spent primer catcher keeps your workspace clean. Ideal for both beginners and seasoned reloaders, it offers precision priming and durable construction to streamline your ammunition reloading process.

## Description

The Lee Precision Breech Lock Challenger Press is an "O" frame press. The "O" frame press by design is the strongest and by far the most popular style press. The larger than average opening allows for maximum hand clearance. The spent primer catcher is positive and allows you to route the spent primers directly to the trash can. Priming is a dream with the Lee Lever Prime System. Best of all, it includes the Breech Lock Quick Change die system. Change dies instantly with a twist of the wrist, and you never have to re-adjust your die.

Review: Classic, easy, compact - For a single stage reloading press, I'm not sure you could do much better than this. It's well built, highly affordable, and looks good too. It comes with priming arms for large and small primers and a primer pickup tube for when you deprime your brass. The arm is adjustable to either side and adjustable for length. The half-turn "breech lock quick change" is nice - set your dies and then leave them. The breech locks are a little pricey (between $7-11 depending on where you buy them), but if you're reloading multiple calibers it's well worth the time savings. You only get one breech lock in the box, so you can leave it in the press and screw your dies in / out in the traditional manner if that's your preference. All the materials seem to be well made and heavy duty. I've deprimed a couple hundred rounds ranging from 9mm to 30-06 (using the Lee universal deprimer, a great tool) and I've reloaded a few dozen .308 rounds. My finished ammunition has come out within 3/100s tolerance, which may be due to ammo / case / whatever differences - all I know is the Lee works well and has kept me going. I use the Lee dies, but only because they seem to be the cheapest option with great reviews. I know you can use a slew of other manufacturer's dies on this press, too. It doesn't come with mounting hardware, so you'll need to provide your own. It does have screw mounts on the top for using the Lee quick-prime device, which is an awesome addition. All in all, I am very happy and look forward to reloading countless more rounds with this tool.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you attach the shell holder & what shell holder is the proper one?**
A: It just slides into the ram. It only goes in one way you cant mess it up. what shell holder is the proper one, now that is a tougher question. It depends on what you are loading. if you are talking about brands then they are universal. just look up what ever brand you are going to buy to see which size you need. all of the companies that make them have a chart that tells you which one you need to load what caliber.

**Q: What do i need to buy to prime shells with this press?**
A: If your press was made 2006 or is newer you need the "Lee Safety Prime Small and Large Primer Feeder for 2006, Later Reloading Press".  IT cost about 24$.  There are two primer arms ( one for large and one for small primers)that included with press these are also necessary.  There are u tube videos available on the internet that are very good showing how to use the primer feeder.  I use the  lee hand tool it is simple and dose a excellent job

**Q: do i still need to secure a permit for this press,in order to be released in Bureau of Custom in Philippines????**
A: Contact Lee and they can answer that.

**Q: Will it work for 300 win. Mag.?**
A: Loads up to the 460 weatherby mag
Overall length‎: ‎3.65 in (93 mm)
