I have Lee tools and Hornady, RCBS, Pacific, Lyman and probably more and actually the worse design of any tool I've purchased, I've come across is an RCBS product, but I don't go out of my way to defame RCBS ( the RCBS bench priming tool cannot be used flat on a bench. It must ne elevated 4" or have the handle hanging out over the bench edge. The designer was either asleep or drunk when it was designed and the company went on their "tool snob" fans who bought tools only by the color or name on the side). I have used hand and power tools for over 55 years to make a living and I know how to use hand tools. I have tried to duplicate "problems" Lee detractors have complained about and I am unable to replicate the problem most of the time...

But that's just my opinion and just like others I'm allowed...
