Lee gets bad mouthed alot. But then ya get what ya pay for.
And if you decide to alter a Lee mold no one with call you unkind words as no one really cares except for he who does the modifying.
They have some good bullet designs, or at least unique ones, which have worked out for me.
I BELIEVE that they may have gotten a tad better on moulds, at least from t he last few I've bought - a couple of the "new" 2Cs (used, from a friend) and a spankin' new 6C TL358-148WC. These more recent moulds actually cast big enough to use, which was my biggest issue with them before.
A little attention to detail when you got a new one was worth it as long as you got one that cast big enough to use. I've made several last a long time.
I love their dies, their simpler presses and several of their do-dads,especially the old, round-tray priming tool.
