The Pocket press™
A bench-grade arbor press that fits in your pocket.
The Pocket press™
The Pocket Press™ is a patent-pending, pocket-size bullet seating press designed for inline seating dies (L.E. Wilson, SAC, Micron, FCP, Whidden).
Bench-like seating control anywhere. 8.6 oz and 6.9″ × 1.5″ × 1.5″.
The Pocket Press™ delivers over 300 lbs of seating force without a bench—so you can make precise final seating-depth adjustments before a match or while developing loads at the range.
What people are saying about The Pocket Press™
Perfect for travel. No more lugging the heavy arbor press on flights. Awesome as well that this can be in my carryon baggage so that I can stay under the checked bag weight limits. Thank you!

This is the answer I’ve been looking for. I’ve traveled to national level matches for years and have always had to bring a bulky and heavy arbor press with me, and while I’ve tried other methods as well nothing can even come close to what this does. It checks every box and does exactly what it’s supposed to.

I just received my Pocket Press and am thoroughly impressed with it, it made me ask why anyone would want an arbor press for the range anymore. Must have for seating depth tests at the range or final seating after loading long prior to travel.

This product is a game changer!!! I love the fact that I now have a tool that allows me to change bullet seating when running seating depth tests without having to get up off my rifle and go to a bench to seat bullets. Its also the perfect size and weight to just throw in your range bag and go. And I love that the press comes with a pouch that allows me to store my inline die in the press and keep it safe while traveling.
The Pocket Press should be in every serious shooters range bag!!!

I am always trying to reduce the footprint of everything I take to the range or a match. With this very well thought out press I am able to get rid of an arbor press with no loss in performance. It also allows me to store my inline die in the press with out taking up any extra room. This is one of my favorite shooting purchases of the last few years. Thank you Lee for designing such a good product the filled a real need many traveling shooters have. If you have not bought one of these you should!

Precision Tuning at the Range
Don’t let “bullet weld” affect your accuracy. After loaded rounds sit, the bullet can develop slight stiction in the case neck (often called bullet weld), which can affect bullet release and shift your results on target. Re-seating shortly before a match is a simple way to improve bullet release consistency and accuracy.
The Pocket Press™ enables precise bullet seating at the range, away from the loading bench. Crafted from anodized aluminum, stainless steel, and bronze, this patent-pending tool is ultra-compact and lightweight and slips easily into a range bag or pocket.
Stop lugging 3‑lb presses to the range. Traditional arbor presses typically require a stable mounting surface; The Pocket Press™ fits in your hand and goes where you do.
