CAUTION

Ammunition reloading can be danger-

ous if done improperly and should not

be attempted by persons not willing and

able to read and follow instructions ex-

actly. Children should not be permitted

to reload ammunition without strict pa-

rental supervision. Always wear safety

glasses when reloading and shooting.

Ammunition loaded with these tools and

data should only be used in

modern guns in good condi-

tion. We do not accept re-

sponsibility for ammunition

loaded with these tools or

data as we have no control

over the manufacture and

storage of components or the loading

procedure and techniques. Primers and

gun powders, like gasoline and matches,

can be dangerous if improperly handled

or misused.

Guarantee

lee reloading pr odu ct s are

guaranteed not to wear out or break

from normal use for two full years or

they will be repaired or replaced at no

charge if returned to the factory. Any

Lee product of current manufacture,

regardless of age or condition, will

be reconditioned to new, including

a new guarantee, if returned to the

factory with payment equal to half the

current retail price.

TO SUM UP

»Use only plastic wads

»Primer type is unimportant for most loads

»Shells made of one-piece plastic construction,

including the base wad, require less powder.

»Paper shells or plastic shells with a paper base

wad usually require slightly more powder to give

the same velocity.

STATION 3 Slip the shell into the wad

guide at STATION 3.

STATION 3a

Lower the handle and slide

charge bar to the right. This adds the powder.

STATION 3b Raise handle, insert proper

wad and lower the handle until it stops.

STATION 3c Slide the charge bar to the

left to add the shot. Raise the handle.

STATION 4 Place the shell under the

proper crimp starter. Keep an inward fold of

the shell mouth toward the front for proper

alignment with the segmented starter. De-

press the handle to a full stop. Some shells

may require a two-second pause to set the

plastic.

Note The 8-segment crimp starter is in

the front on the 12 GAUGE only. The other

gauges have the 6-segment starter in the

front. Be sure you select the correct one.

STATION 5 Immediately move the shell

into the shell holder at STATION 5 and com-

plete the crimp. You should have a perfectly

crimped shell with a nice, tapered end.

IMPORTANT A good crimp can only be

obtained if the wad is the correct length.

After the shot is added, there should be

about ⁄ inch of shell above the shot on a

12 gauge; about ⁄  inch for the 20 gauge;

and just slightly more for the 16 gauge. If

the crimp is too deep with a hole in the cen-

ter, use a longer wad. Mashed in crimps or

crushed cases indicate the wad should be

shorter.

BEFORE YOU START

RELOADING

Mount your Lee Load All II to a sturdy

bench or table with the three screws

supplied. See HELPFUL HINTS

for por-

table mounting.

Mount press no more than ½” from edge of

bench for handle clearance.

Install the primer punch, spring and

primer guide into STATION 2.

3Remove two screws holding the

nameplate. Remove charge bar and

install correct shot bushing and

powder bushing as shown on the

charge table. Reassemble, being

careful to not overtighten the screws.

CAUTION Recheck the bushing against

the load data. Too much shot or powder will

cause dangerous pressures.

4 Slide the charge bar to the left and fill

the shot and powder hoppers. Note the

powder hopper is the smaller one on

the left, above the word POWDER on the

nameplate.

5 Sort cases as to brand and type and

discard the defective ones. Because in-

terior length differs between brands and

types, they require different length wads.

It’s best to load one type at a time.

NOW YOU CAN

BEGIN RELOADING

Your Lee Load-All II is factory set

and requires no adjustment.

STATION 1 Slip the sizing die,

grooved end up, over the shell. Place

the shell in STATION 1 and pull down

the handle. This will full length size and

deprime the shell.

STATION 2 Place a primer in the

priming pocket at STATION 2. Move the

shell onto STATION 2; pull down the

handle. The sizing die will automatically

be pushed off at this station. Remove it

completely from the shell.

STATION 3 Slip the shell into the wad

guide at STATION 3.

STATION 3a

Lower the handle and slide

charge bar to the right. This adds the powder.

STATION 3b Raise handle, insert proper

wad and lower the handle until it stops.

STATION 3c Slide the charge bar to the

left to add the shot. Raise the handle.

STATION 4 Place the shell under the

proper crimp starter. Keep an inward fold of

the shell mouth toward the front for proper

alignment with the segmented starter. De-

press the handle to a full stop. Some shells

may require a two-second pause to set the

plastic.

Note The 8-segment crimp starter is in

the front on the 12 GAUGE only. The other

gauges have the 6-segment starter in the

front. Be sure you select the correct one.

STATION 5 Immediately move the shell

into the shell holder at STATION 5 and com-

plete the crimp. You should have a perfectly

crimped shell with a nice, tapered end.

IMPORTANT A good crimp can only be

obtained if the wad is the correct length.

After the shot is added, there should be

about ⁄ inch of shell above the shot on a

12 gauge; about ⁄  inch for the 20 gauge;

and just slightly more for the 16 gauge. If

the crimp is too deep with a hole in the cen-

ter, use a longer wad. Mashed in crimps or

crushed cases indicate the wad should be

shorter.

BEFORE YOU START

RELOADING

Mount your Lee Load All II to a sturdy

bench or table with the three screws

supplied. See HELPFUL HINTS

for por-

table mounting.

Mount press no more than ½” from edge of

bench for handle clearance.

Install the primer punch, spring and

primer guide into STATION 2.

3Remove two screws holding the

nameplate. Remove charge bar and

install correct shot bushing and

powder bushing as shown on the

charge table. Reassemble, being

careful to not overtighten the screws.

CAUTION Recheck the bushing against

the load data. Too much shot or powder will

cause dangerous pressures.

4 Slide the charge bar to the left and fill

the shot and powder hoppers. Note the

powder hopper is the smaller one on

the left, above the word POWDER on the

nameplate.

5 Sort cases as to brand and type and

discard the defective ones. Because in-

terior length differs between brands and

types, they require different length wads.

It’s best to load one type at a time.

NOW YOU CAN

BEGIN RELOADING

Your Lee Load-All II is factory set

and requires no adjustment.

STATION 1 Slip the sizing die,

grooved end up, over the shell. Place

the shell in STATION 1 and pull down

the handle. This will full length size and

deprime the shell.

STATION 2 Place a primer in the

priming pocket at STATION 2. Move the

shell onto STATION 2; pull down the

handle. The sizing die will automatically

be pushed off at this station. Remove it

completely from the shell.

TO SUM UP

»Use only plastic wads

»Primer type is unimportant for most loads

»Shells made of one-piece plastic construction,

including the base wad, require less powder.

»Paper shells or plastic shells with a paper base

wad usually require slightly more powder to give

the same velocity.

CAUTION

Ammunition reloading can be danger-

ous if done improperly and should not

be attempted by persons not willing and

able to read and follow instructions ex-

actly. Children should not be permitted

to reload ammunition without strict pa-

rental supervision. Always wear safety

glasses when reloading and shooting.

Ammunition loaded with these tools and

data should only be used in

modern guns in good condi-

tion. We do not accept re-

sponsibility for ammunition

loaded with these tools or

data as we have no control

over the manufacture and

storage of components or the loading

procedure and techniques. Primers and

gun powders, like gasoline and matches,

can be dangerous if improperly handled

or misused.

Guarantee

lee reloading pr od ucts are

guaranteed not to wear out or break

from normal use for two full years or

they will be repaired or replaced at no

charge if returned to the factory. Any

Lee product of current manufacture,

regardless of age or condition, will

be reconditioned to new, including

a new guarantee, if returned to the

factory with payment equal to half the

current retail price.

TO SUM UP

»Use only plastic wads

»Primer type is unimportant for most loads

»Shells made of one-piece plastic construction,

including the base wad, require less powder.

»Paper shells or plastic shells with a paper base

wad usually require slightly more powder to give

the same velocity.
