[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 884790, member: 25383"] brother inlaw uses a Lee Cast iron press (whatever it's called). A steal at the price, plus it's 100% US made instead of simply assembled and boxed over here. He had trouble getting it setup, and came to me for some help. It was 80% operator error! The only rounds he has trouble with are 45-70's and things like that. He came over to my place with a cigar box full of 30-06 brass, and we sized them with his dies on the CO-AX to fit the chamber on a Savage rifle he has. Then went over to his place and gave his Lee a good look over. Made some shim plates to seriously beef up his bench mount. That seemed to make it easier as the mount was rock solid. He liked the Forster so well that he bought one. But what he really liked best was the Forster 30-06 dies. Yet the main reason he bought the CO-AX was for it's shear power and the ability not to flex under extreme pressure. If I buy another press to set along side the Forster it will be that same Lee, as it's just that good. gary [/QUOTE]
