A hand press is a beast of its own. It’s strength is in its manageability and mobility. With those strengths come equal and opposite weaknesses. In order to work well on the go, it simply can’t be built to last forever, and its mobile size will require you to do some extra prep to get your bullets at their peak. If you’re considering getting a hand press, consider what you’re using it for and ask yourself:

– Do you need to reload bullets on the shooting site?
– Do you truly not have the space for a standard press?
– Are you more interested in a precise press over a long-lasting press?
– Are you building a bug out bag?
– Will you need to be able to make your own bullets on the go?

If you answered yes to more than a couple of those questions, a hand press will be a good option for you. The most important question now is which one you are willing to buy, which is the Lee Precision Breech Lock Hand Press Kit.
