Lee Challenger Single Stage Press Kit

This kit features the same components as the 50th Anniversary Kit, but we have replaced the Safety Prime with the Auto Bench Prime and three of the most popular Hand Priming Tool Shell Holders (2, 4 and 19) that work for over 60 cartridges. This kit is for those who prefer to prime off the press. This press includes (1) Smart Lock Quick Change Bushing.

Includes the new Challenger III Press and one Smart Lock quick-change bushing. You get a complete powder handling system, with the most convenient and repeatable Perfect Powder Measure. Plus the Lee Safety Scale, the most sensitive and safest of all powder scales and fill your case with the included Powder Funnel.

Case Preparation Tools include a Value Trim Case Trimmer that allows you to trim directly on your reloading press (order cartridge specific Quick Trim Die separately). Or, use the Cutter and Lock Stud to trim your cases by hand. Order the correct Case Length Gauge for the cartridges you will be loading. Power Grip Shell Holder provides a comfortable grip for holding cases during case trimming and chamfering sessions. An included Chamfer Tool chamfers the inside and outside of the case mouth and a tube of premium Sizing Lube is included. A small and large Primer Pocket-cleaning Tool completes the case preparation package.

Purchased separately, it's a $307.78 value!

Photo note:  Challenger III press is shown mounted to the Lee Bench Plate. This product is sold separately.

Challenger III, celebrating forty years. Third generation Challenger features everything that made the Challenger the world’s bestselling single station press. Plus, we have added an ergonomically formed lever allowing even more comfortable operation with no more stooping at the bottom of stroke. Spent primers fall through the ram and collect in a convenient tube. Keeps dirt and grime off the frame and ram, and your workspace clean.

Priming position is moved up front where the action is. And the LEE LEVER PRIME SYSTEM is still instant change with no tools. Say goodbye to time-consuming die adjustments, BREECH LOCK QUICK CHANGE DIE SYSTEM is built in. Change dies instantly with a twist of the wrist; you’ll never have to re-adjust your die. Works with all brands of dies.

Same unbreakable “O” frame design, all steel linkage, and adjustable length lever. This same press would cost you more than twice as much from other manufacturers, and that’s without all of the Challenger’s features.

  What is the difference between the 50th Anniversary Kit (Item# 90050) and the Challenger Breech Lock Single Stage Press kit (Item# 90030)?
• The main difference is the priming feature, the Anniversary kit utilizes a press mounted priming feature, when the Breech Lock Single stage kit utilizes a Lee Bench primer and shellholders
