Lee Pistol decapper.

Did some reloading yesterday and noticed that my decapping pin was a touch bent. It is still working fine and have ordered a Lee Pistol decapper to have as a spare. I take it that there is one decapper that fits all pistol rounds?

I'm sure it's nothing more that the decamping mandrel for their pistol dies. Rifle mandrels are specific, except for the Universal Decapping pin, so essentially it's a universal decapping pin for pistol dies, but it's actually the only one they use..... if you see what I mean!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!
