The Lee Bulge Buster Kit is a cartridge case prep accessory designed to remove lower base bulges from handgun brass that standard shellholder-restrained dies cannot reach. The kit uses a push-through adapter that operates with a compatible Lee Factory Crimp Die (die sold separately) to restore cases for reliable feeding and consistent crimping. The package includes an extension sleeve, a push-through punch, and a catch container for efficient case processing. Constructed of carbide steel components and finished in red and silver, the kit is intended for pistol brass maintenance in single-station or turret presses.
