Lee Challenger III Single Stage Press

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.
