[QUOTE="kai, post: 1568686, member: 98994"] I started reloading with the Lee Classic dies over 45 years ago and have owned various presses and wanted a new premium press. After reading posts here and on other sites about the Co-Ax and other presses, I finally bought the new MEC Marksman press. It has floating case holders and solidly mounted dies that can use the Honardy Lock-n-Load bushings for quick die changes. I studied both designs, the Co-Ax and the MEC Marksman, and I thought that a press that holds the die rigidly inline with the ram, and with a floating case holder that allows the case to align with the die would be better for alignment than having the whole die loosely mounted in the press with a floating case holder as used in the Co-Ax. I just started using the MEC press and really like the rigidity, sturdiness, features and overall quality. [/QUOTE]
