Lee Precision 90638 Pro 1000 Reloading Kit 45 ACP

The Lee Precision Pro 1000 reloading kit for 45 ACP is a progressive press setup built for handloaders who want to scale up their 45 ACP production without leaving the press to hunt for tools and components. This isn't a bare-bones press—it comes loaded with the essentials: a Pro 1000 progressive press, a full set of carbide 3-die sets for clean, fast pistol reloading, a Pro Auto-Disk powder measure with double disk kit, an integrated case feeder system, and an automated priming mechanism. The 3-hole turret design keeps your workflow moving smoothly from case feeding through final inspection.

What makes the Pro 1000 tick is its safety-first design. The primer and powder systems only function when a case is actually present in the press—a safeguard that keeps you from spreading primers or powder into empty station holes. The Pro Auto-Disk system is reliable and easy to adjust between loads, and the case feeder takes the monotony out of feeding rounds one-handed while you focus on seating and crimping.

If you're serious about 45 ACP, this kit cuts setup time down to almost nothing. Just note that the Pro 1000 works exclusively with Lee's 3-hole turret (included here), and when it comes to primers, stick with CCI or Remington brands—Lee approves only those for use in the Pro 1000 system. It's a complete, self-contained solution for handloaders building their handgun ammunition efficiently.
