[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 356489, member: 9215"] "I've been using a Rockchucker for the past 17 years and as good of a press as it has been, it is starting to get a little sloppy. I am in the market for a new single stage press." All the press actually does is provide the force to push the case into the die and pull it back out. I suspect your's still does that quite well. Even if the press alignment is perfect the case doesn't need a tight ram to force it in straight, a round case WILL self center into a round die unless a poorly aligned but tightly fitted ram prevents it. Unless your press is so loose you have to hand guide the cases into the dies, OR unless you've just got the hots for a new press, you really don't have a problem. My advice is to forget it. [/QUOTE]
