[QUOTE="Savage 12BVSS, post: 1879979, member: 112413"] Well said, thats the great thing with this site, you get reloaders first hand experience and opinions on items not the biased manufacturer / gun writer slant. I too have a rockchucker IV/Supreme press and have owned and used it since about 2003. I needed a new press because my rockchucker succumbed to the steady rain of corrosive dust and bits from depriming countless rounds thru the years. Ram got play in it and it was given dedicated depriming status with a universal decapper die, will be on my bench as long as I reload. I tried an RCBS Summit like BigE above did a Marksman, I tried to be as informed as possible and then posted a review on this site to give experience's with. As reloader's do this it will give some insight for other's to benefit from. BigE I would suggest not maybe as a cure but a relief from the spinning shellholder hassel, try different brand shellholder's and see if some don't fit tighter than others. I tried Lee, Redding, and RCBS in my press and the redding's where snug and much less prone to any movement or turning. Just a suggestion but it worked on a different press with a similar issue. Enjoy the new press and Reloading! :) Also I would be lost without my RCBS and Frankford hand priming tools. Got to have that feel when I seat them, makes it so easy to tell as primer pockets slowly loosen and to what degree. [/QUOTE]
