    A challenging question

    I have one of the old Lee presses for loading Brocock Tacs and it seems that the large brass valve which screws into the top of the press is blown. I can see no way to take it apart so looks like I shall have to find a new one. My question is where and if. I have just rang Best Fittings and they had no idea what I was talking about.
    So, anybody have any suggestions as I still like to play with my revolver from time to time.

    As they are effectively prohibited in the UK you might have to buy overseas where the design is still legal.

    It`s still perfectly legal to own and buy the tacs without a FAC. Trouble is no one uses them anymore. It does look as though the hose and valve is available although at £30 from Silco.

    That's good to know! I have an old, rusty and untested ram charger here that I want to get working at some point. Nice to know where I can get the spares
    Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room
