Lee Decapper & Base .22 Caliber

The Lee Decapper & Base .22 Caliber is a specialized reloading tool designed for shooters who demand precision and safety during the cartridge preparation process. This decapping tool removes spent primers from fired .22 Rimfire brass cases, a critical first step in the reloading sequence that must be performed cleanly and reliably. Whether you're a competitive rimfire shooter or a precision rifle reloader, this tool ensures your brass is properly conditioned before resizing and repriming.

Lee Precision engineered this decapper with a compact, ergonomic design that defines their reloading components. The tool features a dedicated decapping pin calibrated specifically for .22 Rimfire cases, which have unique primer pocket dimensions that differ significantly from centerfire cartridges. The included base component provides a stable, bench-mounted platform that keeps both hands free during operation, reducing fatigue during reloading sessions and improving consistency.

Reloaders working with .22 Long Rifle, .22 WMR, and other rimfire cartridges will find this tool indispensable for safe, efficient brass preparation. Law enforcement and military armorers may also appreciate its reliability for training programs, although it is primarily intended for individual reloaders. The decapper's hardened steel construction withstands repeated use without wear, making it a durable addition to any reloading setup.
