Lee Collator Review
Fits: Lee Pro 1000 and Lee Loadmaster
Paid: $11.99 from MidwayUSA.com
Claim: Fills all four tubes in 10 seconds.
Findings: True. If you put enough brass in the collator it will fill in ~10 seconds. Saves tons of time compared to loading the tubes by hand.
Claim: Brass falls base down
Findings: Mostly True. Out of 200 rounds, I had 1 upside down case (Less than 1%). I have read that the larger the case the better the Lee Collator works. The 9mm is the smallest round for the collator, so you will get rounds that are upside down.
