Catching Primers - Lee Turret

[Northof49]

I am using the Lee Deluxe Turret Press that came as a kit Lee p/n 90928 for loading 45 ACP and 9mm. My problem is there doesn't seem to be any way of catching the spent primers when they are ejected at stage 1.

Has anyone come up with a solution to this problem? I'm getting tired of crawling around looking for them.

I built an extension for mine and hang a bucket under it. Some still get on the floor.

if you look in the manual, you should see a template for drilling 2- 1 inch holes directly beneath the decapping chutes- they may be 3/4s- do this and put the cup your dies came in beneath your press - the odd one still goes out on the floor- incidentally the only one with a captive primer is the loadmaster- all the rest use the chute system

I use the bucket trick too and the odd one finds its way to the floor then onto my shoe. So I can bring it upstairs and scratch the hardwood floors, then get yelled at by the wife. But its all good.
