[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 761436, member: 25383"] The title of the original post said it all! It was "quality reloading equipment." I have used a good many different presses here and there over the years, but have actually only bought two. I bought the first one on advice from three gun writers at the NRA convention, and have never regretted it. (yes I got to use many different ones before I bought it at the convention). At the time a press was a press to me, and all were the same. But using them was a different story. I kept going back to the big red one and running another handfull of .308 cases thru it. Bob Milek walked up to me and simply said this is the one your looking for. Two minutes later Skelton and either John Wooters or Bill Jordan walked over and said the samething. Next day I ordered one, and my dealer said I was nuts for spending $80 on a reloading press! When it came in he called me up and asked me if he could try it out, and I said sure. He then promptly orders in five of them. He was at one time selling about five of them a month (his shop was very small and out in the middle of nowhere). I finally have the collet die issues figured out, but can't use them. The are not made to go down as small as I need them to go. May have a custom set made to experiment with. I like the K&M priming tool. Others like the Sinclair tool. Yet a few others like the Lee and the RCBS. I broke at least one Lee and had trouble with another. Never liked the RCBS, and felt the Lee was better. Bought a Sinclair at the sametime a friend bought one, and it didn't work well for me in my beat up hands. Sold it for what I had in it to another friend who still uses it today. I tried a K&M at a shoot, and fell in love with it. Now I use Federal primers most of the time and the Lee dosn't like them as well. But I do use the Lee or the RCBS a little bit priming pistol rounds. I also use the priming device on the C0-Ax from time to time as it does a very good job. I absolutely love the Wilson trimmer! I made an adapter to drive it with an electric screw driver. I also did the micrometer stop for it before you could buy them from Sinclair (I like theirs better than mine). The Square Peg clamp is the best one made for it, and seems almost impossible to find. My one complaint about it is the fired and unfired strait walled case issue with the collets. For that I use either a Forster or a P.O.S. Lyman gary [/QUOTE]
