I shoot 40 S&W from a Glock. Is this press strong enough to use with the Lee Bulge Buster Kit?

I don't see why not, though I have never used it for that. I would probably recommend a slightly beefier press if you have any doubts. I KNOW the Lee Challenger Press will work for what you need.

That's all you need to do the job. I bought the non-carbide Redding GRx sizing Die and lube all cases first. Works great!

Yes it's plenty strong for that use. I use it mainly to deprime and to remove bullets. But it is a good press for light duty use

I have not used the bulge buster kit. I would give it a try. I hand load .480 Ruger, .44 Rem mag and .357 mag with great success using this press. I also use the ram-prime chucked in this press. **use case lube** **when using the "ram-prime" kit, I have to pull the handle down as though I'm priming to insert a primer and barely make room for the cartridge case to fit in the holder to prevent from flipping the primer when using. Otherwise, I'd say go for it

I load 9mm-38spec-357-45acp-45lc-223-308-762x39and30/06 I have found this to be a strong single stage press-in my opinion you should have no problem loading 40 s&w; hope this helped you out----Lee

Depends on what machine you are using. Lee makes two different sets of shell holders. The red box works only with the hand priming tool. The green box will work with any of the loading presses. I have a Lee classic turret press and the green box is what I needed but the description on the red one said it would work with the press. It doesn't. So if you are needing shell holders for one of the Lee press reloaders buy the green box, not the red one. I'm new too and was fooled by the description.

It works great on my 40mm S&W.; I don't know of any reason it won't work on your 9mm. I gave my two sons each one and it works for them. One uses it on his 45 and the other on his 40mm Glock. These are all double stack. This loader is one of the finest I have ever used.

Not much. I have no problem full length resizing properly lubricated 7mm Rem Mag with that press. If an average person has a grip strength of between 70-80 pounds, I'd estimate no more than 20-30 for 30-30. If you're on the fence, I'd say go for it. My dad has a nice Lyman press, and he still bought this one in addition to his first one after he tried using mine. Can't go wrong.

Honestly, I am not sure! Sorry - my guess would be yes, but I just sold my 40mm S&W; and never tried it - I do have a S&W; 9mm, and the magazine is skinnier than my Glock 9mm, but this does work with it, but not as smoothly - but loading a handful of magazines at the range for me and my wife taking turns, I swear by this thing! I am sure you could contact Glock through their website.

I also have a lee classic 4 hole turret press and yes the shell holder will work.

As long as you have the dies for that size. The Lee Loadmasters is a decent press, just need a little finesse during setup. Mine work flawlessly, 6 months and 7000 rds so far.

They should work on any Lee press. I'm unfamiliar with the breech lock system, but it should work fine.

although I don't own a rock chucker press I have used the Lyman die in my lee press and I am told that both presses use the same diameter and thread pattern so as far as I know they should work in the RCBS press

Tough to say--probably about the same. My husband says he prefers the hand press. The advantage of the Lee Loader is that you can do it anytime anywhere without any other special equipment. A bench press will load faster than either of these.

There are multiple Lee Presses that use the Breech Lock system. However, if it's a Lee Press made after 2006 that has the Lever Prime System (LPS) it will fit. e.g. Lee Challenger Breech Lock Single Stage Press. It will not fit a Lee Breech Lock hand press as it isn't bench mounted.

i have the breech lock challenger press and it bolts on to it i would assume it would bolt onto a lee turret press

As far as I know you can use them with any LEE press, I have three LEE presses and they work just fine in any one of them, you just have to remember that you are either loading 40cal. S/W or 10mm and that your setup for each is different.

Generally speaking, presses have the same threads all around. It should work just fine.

Yes, I have loaded the .270 on this press. I reload many different calibers. Mostly handgun cals.

I load 9MM, 40S&W, 308 Win, 270 Win, 30-06 Springfield, and 35 Rem. I plan on loading 45 ACP and 357 Mag when I get the dies. You're only limited by imagination, and of course dies and brass. The Lee Classic Turret Press serves me perfectly. Good luck...

Yes, BUT......you need to get the appropriate dies AND shell plates for the press. If Amazon doesn't have them, try ebay, and if not there, go to the Lee Website, for sure they have them.
