Description
The Lee Six Pack Pro 6000 is the result of nearly four decades of progressive press development from Lee Precision, and it shows. This .38 Special and .357 Magnum kit gives you six die stations to work with, which means there's room to run everything from your sizing and seating dies to extras like a bullet feeder or powder check die if you want to grow into it. The automatic indexing has just one moving part that drops in by hand without tools, and it never needs adjustment once it's timed correctly. For loaders moving up from a single stage or a turret, this is a genuine jump in output while keeping the budget-friendly Lee pricing people know.
What the Six Pack Pro Kit Brings to the Bench
Everything you need to start loading is in the box. The kit ships with the Six Pack progressive press, the Deluxe Auto Drum powder measure, the correct shell plate for .38 Special and .357 Magnum, a universal five-tube case feed magazine, and a set of Lee breech lock dies with instructions and load data. The automatic priming system is one of the standout upgrades here, handling any brand or size of primer and seating at the bottom of the stroke so all six stations stay open for work. Both calibers run on the same shell plate since they share a case head, so swapping between your light .38 plinkers and hotter .357 loads is simple.
Built Tough Enough for the Big Stuff
This press is not a lightweight. It uses the same all-steel linkage found on Lee's Classic Cast 50 BMG press, and the stroke and clearance handle the largest magnum rifle cases with no trouble. The 28.4mm ram glides through a solid steel frame for serious support under load.
Real-World Speed on the Six Pack Pro 6000
Once dialed in and broken in, plenty of handloaders report comfortably hitting 500 to 600 rounds per hour on this press, even while stopping to top off primers and cases. It rewards a steady, relaxed rhythm rather than racing, making it a great fit for anyone who wants to knock out a few hundred rounds in a sitting. Note that the kit includes .38 Special load data, and while .357 Magnum loads the same way, you'll want to source .357 data separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Lee Six Pack Pro Kit load both .38 Special and .357 Magnum?
Yes. The kit is set up for .38 Special and will also load .357 Magnum since both cartridges share the same case head and run on the same shell plate. Keep in mind the included instructions cover .38 Special load data, so you'll want to source published .357 Magnum data separately before loading those.
Does the Six Pack Pro 6000 have automatic indexing and priming?
It does. The press uses a simple automatic indexing system with just one moving part that requires no tools and never needs adjustment once timed, and it can be deactivated in seconds for manual operation. The automatic priming system seats primers at the bottom of the stroke and works with any brand or size of primer.
How many rounds per hour can you expect from the Lee Six Pack Pro?
Once the press is dialed in and you've worked through the break-in period, many loaders comfortably reach 500 to 600 rounds per hour, even while stopping to refill primers and cases. It runs best at a steady, unrushed pace and is well suited to sessions of a few hundred rounds at a time.
Is a factory crimp die included in the kit?
The kit includes a full length sizing die, a powder-through expanding die, and a bullet seating die. The carbide factory crimp die is sold separately as an accessory. The six-station design leaves you room to add a crimp die, bullet feeder, or powder check die down the road.
