Is it time for a new press?

An interesting option if it's bullet seating OAL consistancy you're after...if you're not doing so already:
Always measure COAL using a comparator.
Consider using a Harrell arbor press and a Wilson seating die. Not too expensive and amazing consistancy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXZyaZ2D38s&feature=relmfu
For F/L & neck sizing, I'd take a guess your press is OK.....but hey. I never knew RCBS would refurb their presses either.

After years of looking at one I got a Forster co-ax, Been using it for a
while now and absolutely love it. You wont be disappointed.

Just what Randy said! They allow for self centering and really turn out some good stuff SE.. The shellholder is really just pulling the case out of the die anyhow. Trust us buddy, if your gonna upgrade, go the whole way!

SE,
Buy the Co-ax, when you get it set up send in your old press for a refurb. When the old one comes back you have a dedicated press for depriming, priming, swaging military primer pockets etc. and a back up to boot. Problem solved! 8) Aren't we all so good at spending each others money! :lol: I sure am glad Scotty doesn't have my acct. #'s! :shock:

Guys we shouldn't pick on Scotty 8) I think that he is starting to get a complex :wink: but then again he has broad shoulders so why stop :mrgreen:
I have order my forester dies and likely will be ordering a press after I pay for a few other toys.
