Lee Challenger III 40th Anniversary Press Kit, .223 Remington

The Lee Challenger III 40th Anniversary Press Kit for .223 Remington (Lee part no. 92139) pairs Lee’s Challenger III single-stage press with a free .223 Remington Breech Lock Carbide 3-Die Set to celebrate 40 years of the Challenger design. Lee Precision builds the Challenger III on an unbreakable O-frame, the strongest and most popular single-stage press style, with a 4-inch opening that gives more hand clearance than most single-stage presses on the market. The press uses Lee’s Breech Lock Quick Change die system, so switching dies is a twist of the wrist rather than a re-adjustment, and spent primers fall through the ram into a collection tube instead of littering the press frame. The included 3-die set covers .223 Remington sizing, seating, and expanding in one purchase, along with a shell holder, powder dipper, and load data, so a new .223 Remington reloader can go from empty press to finished ammunition with this single kit.
