    The seller was very friendly, professional, and responsive to every question I had. They even offered extra help beyond what I asked for. The machine arrived very well packed and much earlier than expected. Everything was exactly as described. Highly recommended seller!! I would definitely buy from them again!

    Essential to verify lead softness

    I got this to verify how -soft- lead is, not how hard. Finding a good source of pure lead to cast bullets for muzzle loaders can be a challenge. But with this tool an unknown sample can easily be checked, even by hand in the field if necessary. The measurement scale only goes to 0.10", but if the indentation goes to 0.10" or more then the lead is soft enough. The indentation tool is spring-loaded and applies the correct amount of pressure as long as it's not over-compressed. So it's possible to make a measurement in the field without a press if it's just to verify the softness of an unknown sample. A more precise reading can be done at home if necessary. One thing to note is that the microscope's optics can be disorienting since the image is reversed. Apparently in order to minimize ...

    Fool Proof

    This hardness tester is extremely easy to use and almost fool proof. The way that the indenter is spring loaded ensures consistent and repeatable readings. The scale on the eyepiece is clear and easy to read and only takes a little practice to get used to lining it up. There are aftermarket devices to steady it, but I found getting accurate readings very easy.

    Accurate but tough to read

    Like the title states, the tester seems accurate.It is however, extremely hard for me to line the scale up on the microscope with the dimple and get a clear sight picture. The scale seems to disappear and become blurry once lined up with the dimple. It takes me about 10 minutes each try to read the dimple. The included case is also merely a case for lee reloading dies she the microscope isn't held securely, just left to lay sideways. For the occasional tester I say go for it.

    Easy to use and accurate

    This is the handiest tool for measuring Lead hardness that I have ever used. Simply place the tool in your press and adjust the height to make the indent in the lead sample and read the diameter of the indentation with the enclosed calibrated microscope and check the hardness on the enclosed data sheet. All you need to check the hardness is a hand press and the lead sample and of course the Lee tester. The lead sample needs to be filed flat to make a legible and consistent indentation by the tester. The only tricky part and it is very minor is that one has to keep the proper tension on the plunger for half a minute or so. Highly recommended for cost and accuracy.

    Easy to setup and use

    For the price you won't beat the quality and ease of use. The only problem is with the microscope, I would have paid a little more for Lee to put the extra lens in the microscope to correct the backwards view. You'll also need someway to hold the microscope since its to hard to hold steady enough to get a good measurement, I bought a small octopus type camera phone tripod and zip tied the scope to it.
