Lee Load-Master Shell Plate - #2L Size

The Lee Load-Master Shell Plate #2L Size is a precision reloading component manufactured by Lee Precision for use with the Load-Master progressive reloading press. This hardened steel shell plate is engineered to position ammunition cartridges at precise intervals throughout the reloading cycle, ensuring consistent case indexing and reliable operation across multiple loading stations. The #2L plate accommodates a range of mid-to-large rifle calibers, making it essential equipment for serious handloaders seeking repeatable, efficient ammunition production.

Constructed from durable steel, the shell plate withstands thousands of reloading cycles without performance degradation. The precise machining ensures cartridge cases seat firmly and consistently at each station, eliminating case slippage and indexing errors that can compromise round quality or damage equipment. The #2L designation identifies this plate's specific caliber range, which includes .22 Benchrest, .240 Weatherby, 6mm Remington, .25-06, 7x57mm Mauser, .300 Savage, and 7.7mm Japanese among others. Compact dimensions (2.65 x 2.85 inches) facilitate easy installation and removal from the Load-Master platform, while the light weight (0.32 lbs) maintains the press's balance and handling characteristics.

This component is critical for reloaders working with precision rifle ammunition, whether for long-range target shooting, hunting, or competitive disciplines. Load-Master press operators requiring caliber flexibility will find the #2L plate enables quick caliber conversion without replacing the entire press. Compatible exclusively with Lee Precision's Load-Master platform, proper shell plate selection is non-negotiable for safe, accurate reloading—incorrect plate sizing can cause press malfunction or unsafe ammunition. Replacement or spare plates are necessary for handloaders who regularly work with multiple calibers or operate high-round-count reloading sessions.
