I've just acquired a Lee Loader for 12 ga. I used to have one of these which I used a lot 40 years ago, and got this one mostly for nostalgia reasons.
It has the original charge sheet included with it, and it lists Red Dot, Green Dot, DuPont PB, AL-5, AL-7 and Unique as the powders to use. Back then, I used Green Dot. Just wondered if anyone was currently using this kit, and what powders seem to work for you.
The charge sheet now says to use Green Dot for trap/skeet loads, and to use Dupont PB or AL-5 for HV field loads (1.25 oz. - 2.75" shell). I'm going to load the HV field loads, but have no experience with either of these powders.
Anyone using this?
Thanks!
 
Got rid of my Lee Loader years ago. Just too much frustration in attempting to produce a decent reloaded round. Went to a MEC loader and never looked back.
