[QUOTE="willfrye027, post: 2075935, member: 114992"] Sized the first case in my new M-press today. The shell holder assembly bent during the downstroke of the ram. It stripped the case rim and now the case is stuck in my die. For reference it was 30-06 in a Forster full length sizing die. I did use a bit of force as the case was feeling a little sticky in the die. But nothing crazy and nothing the RCBS reloader special I’ve been using couldn’t handle. I’ve used the dies set up the same way many times before and I followed all the instructions in setting up and using it. not sure if the issue is due to weak materials, poor design, or maybe both. But I will be returning the press (thanks Midway) and not purchasing another. My lesson learned...buy American products 🇺🇸 [/QUOTE]
