Lee Precision 90263 Lee Loader Classic 45 Colt Pistol Reloading Kit

The Lee Precision 90263 Lee Loader Classic is a compact, all-in-one portable reloading kit purpose-built for the 45 Colt cartridge. Built by Lee Precision as part of the long-running Lee Loader line, this single-stage handloader gives shooters a fast, no-press setup for resizing, decapping, charging, and seating rounds at the bench or in the field.

The kit includes a steel sizing die that neck-sizes only, a decapping chamber for removing spent primers, a shell holder cap, and a plastic powder dipper for measuring charges. Components are built from steel loader parts paired with a plastic powder scoop for a lightweight, field-ready package roughly 6 in x 4 in x 2 in and weighing only about 0.13 kg.

Operation is straightforward: simply run the case through the decapping chamber, resize, charge via the calibrated dipper, seat a bullet, and crimp in a single hand-operated sequence that produces a finished round in roughly 30 seconds. Because the Lee Loader neck-sizes only, cases are prepared without the full-length bump typical of press-mounted dies, making it well-suited for revolver cartridges like the 45 Colt.

This is a true grab-and-go reloading system - ideal as a backup loader, a SHTF or hunting-camp tool, or a low-volume reloading solution for the shooter who wants to keep brass alive without investing in a full reloading press. Note: a rubber mallet is required for case sizing and is not included.
