[QUOTE="Autorotate, post: 243303, member: 8073"] Who out there is using this press with some of the longer OAL rounds such as 300 RUM, 3x-378 Wbys, 338 Lapua, etc...? I understand the newer B3 models of this press have a longer handle alleviating clearance problems with the Redding Competition dies...but how about the actual press dimension between the die and the shell holder jaws? Is it tall enough to accommodate setting the bullet on top of the case, and then lowering the seater die to seat the bullet, or are you having to push the bullet up into the seater die to seat on the longer OAL cartridges? I like the RCBS match seater type dies where you slip the bullet in from above, but may use different dies in the future without that capability. I'm looking to reload 300 RUM now, and a 338 Edge/Lapua/Norma in the future, and want to get a press that'll get 'er done. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
