Old lee star crimp wanted

Hi,

I am looking for a old lee reloading star crimp, 6 segment, 12 gauge.
I have one which is wearing out, hand one which you push over the end
of cartridge.
They originally cost about 95 cents when new and made of nylon or plastic

Can anyone in the good old USA help me.

Cheers chris in rainy cold windy england

Does Lee no longer make these? I think the Load Fast used them? Part number LF3035B. The Load Fast is no longer available, but they may have parts for it? Or is this part of the old Lee loader for shot shells?

RE thanks for reply

Hi,
I dont know which one this star crimp is from, but good adea, i will ask lee reloading. I picked one up some years ago and has given me many years of service both for slug and shotshell.
But if anyone has one they dont need please get intouch.
cheers chris

Re crimp

Hi,
i asked lee reloading about the star crimp and it was made by lee custom engineering who went out of business in 1988.

So has anyone got one they do not use or in a draw.

cheers chris in england
