The Lee Pro 1000 Shell Plate #6 is a quick-change component designed for the Lee Pro 1000 reloading press, engineered to handle .32/20, .25/20, and similar cartridge cases. This shell plate enables rapid caliber transitions without requiring tools, making it essential for serious handloaders who work across multiple cartridge families and need to minimize downtime between production runs.
The shell plate system works by indexing into the Pro 1000's turret, positioning each cartridge case precisely for processing through the press's stations. The #6 designation corresponds to a specific case head diameter and overall geometry that matches .32/20 and .25/20 specifications. When transitioning to a different primer size, the manufacturer recommends acquiring a compatible primer attachment unit; however, staying within the same primer pocket diameter allows seamless plate swapping. Weighing just 0.25 lbs and measuring 2.65 × 2.8 × 0.7 inches, the shell plate integrates compactly into the press assembly while maintaining the dimensional precision required for consistent case manipulation across high-volume reloading sessions.
This shell plate is ideal for reloaders developing loads for vintage rifles, cowboy action shooting competitors, or those maintaining multiple firearms chambered in obsolete or specialty cartridges. The tool-free changeover design significantly reduces setup time, allowing handlers to switch between different rounds in minutes rather than managing separate presses or undertaking lengthy conversion procedures. Anyone invested in the Lee Pro 1000 platform who reloads for these specific case families will find this plate an indispensable efficiency upgrade.
Lee Precision's modular approach to the Pro 1000 system allows reloaders to build scalable operations around a single press base, acquiring shell plates and primer attachments as their cartridge portfolio expands. This flexibility is particularly valuable for handloaders working with less common calibers where dedicated single-station presses may be cost-prohibitive or difficult to source.
