A rare find for collectors and reloaders alike — the iconic Lee Loader in 20 gauge, the first complete reloading kit ever offered to American sportsmen. This is the hammer-and-punch style kit that launched a generation of handloaders.

Up for sale is a vintage Lee Loader complete reloading tool set chambered for 20 Gauge 2¾" shotshells. The kit comes in its original black cardboard box with the classic Lee Loader graphics — shotshell and rifle cartridge illustration with the Lee oval logo — and is housed in the original red-trimmed styrofoam tray insert.

This is a hammer-operated, portable reloading kit that requires no press or bench — everything needed to resize, deprime, reprime, charge, seat wads, and crimp shotshells on the go.
