I agree 100% that LEE should have included some indication of the change…that being said…I glad to see LEE has improved the case flairing die to Lyman’s specifications for use with cast or gas checked bullets and is now equipping their reasonable priced dies with the upgrade…I also agree about the new LEE lock rings…not a fan (but being an old asshole, set in my ways, I digress 😜😜😜).
So Nice that Lee makes those "M" style expanders now. Also lucky they make a 44 Russian die set. I have been using Lee and Lyman pistol die sets for some time. I always admired Lyman's invention of the "M" die. and use it with all my pistol rounds regardless of the others brands I may have. Lee supposedly has a new 6 station turret coming out soon I have heard from others that have spoken with the factory. ( I bet its based on the 6pk pro parts) I just got my 4 station cast Iron like yours and I am very happy with it. My extra turrets were so nice and new so I could not gripe! 😆 I was kinda almost disappointed they look so nice. 😃😄 keep going UJ ! 44 Russian reloaders must love this!
I like that. I’ve never seen an expander like that, but looks like it works great. As always, I learned a lot.
I like it. 👍
Now Jim you're gonna have to give Lee back All the attaboys you took away because of that corroded shell holder.😢

Yes yes and yes. 😂👍
Good tech info! gong to get that new flare die and the Turret.
They are nice. 👍
The Lee flare die never bugged me until I got RCBS dies. Now they bug me 😂. Glad to see they made a change. Just hope you never have to warranty them.
They are built like a tank so doubt there will be any issues. 😂
Very nice, UJ 🕺🏻 Have you had a chance to look at the new Lee ultimate turret press, tool heads available in 3,4,5 or 6 position. 👊😎🇺🇸
No I haven’t but not switching now. 😂👍
That’s pretty cool I need to look that up
👍 I hope they sell them at midway. 👍 ( cheap 😂 )

Haha, you do not want a moldy turret! 😂😂😂
Success, happiness and love always to you my dear ❤
Thank you. 💋
Ok dumb question can you put washers underneath like the rcbs 38/357 dies to use for 44mag or is the die already long enough?
Haven’t tried , not sure magnum will work . 🤷♂️
Woooooo the Ric "Flare" die👍
🕺🏻
Here is a link to the tool you need for the new style Lee Lock rings --> www.amazon.com/dp/B07P76CTF3/ref=twister_B01GA77M0C?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Yes Andy! Those G.B. wrenches are the only way I can use those %^&** New style Lee rings 😃😆😅 Otherwise mine would be in the trash prolly by now.
I have a 3D printed wrench but would rather change the ring on the die that needs adjustment. 😂
Get a 2nd seat/crimp die for stage 4 - 3 set to seat - 4 set to crimp without seating stem...just my 2 cents
It’s Russian not sold separate unless from Lee.
Bout time they went to an M style .
Better late than never. 👍
👍👍
👍
👍🤠🇺🇲
Wonder if this is on all their dies going forward? Still probably never buying Lee again after the terrible customer service last year
No idea. 🤷♂️
Well snap…
This took a Long Time.
I wonder when I can upgrade my cheap ass olde man vintage dies ?
I haven’t check to see what fits what or if they will come with all dies. 🤷♂️
