[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 993089, member: 25383"] Have used most all the major brand names at one time or another, and believe me the big dog is a Forster. There are some things about it that are uncomfortable to me. But in a pinch you still can. I use two presses side by side, and one is a small RCBS. All I do with it is pull bullets and cut cases off with a jewelers saw. But have seated cast lead bullets in hand gun calibers very well with it. Still like the Co-Ax better for resizing those cases. Still had I todo all over, the RCBS would have been the Lee cast iron press. My old shooting partner (before our falling out) used the biggest Redding and their turret press. That's all I heard about. When I bought my new safe he came with the middle line backers that delivered it. Once the safe was set, everybody centered around my loading setup. Nobody had ever seen what I used before, so we formed about sixty 30 Herrett cases. I loved it! They were running the cases thru the die and I was cutting them off in the RCBS. One of the guys called Fred Sinclair and ordered in a new Co-Ax while standing in my garage. Had me rework the jaws like I used, and never looked back. As I cut the cases off, I trimmed them to size (about .030" too long). Then charged them with my reworked Lyman #55. Guys asked me when I was going to weigh the charges. I said what for? They're within a couple tenths of a grain, and we're just fire forming them. (AA2230). gary [/QUOTE]
