Lee Challenger Press Modification

I use mostly LEE equipment and recently had a brainstorm while sizing small pistol cases. I decided the full stroke and leverage was unneeded with these little cases. Having a couple of salvaged presses laying around, I took a spare operating lever to the chop saw and cut it off. Leaving slightly more than half the lower end of the handle seemed about right. I now have a full stroke with half the arm movement and it's much easier to stop the ram about half way down to swap another case in. I sized 750 +/- 380 auto cases today w/o the sore elbow or shoulder I usually get from this many strokes. I'm going to chop another when I get time to use when seating bullets.
