[QUOTE="KDB, post: 322661, member: 18510"] Forster co-ax press is really good for shorter OAL's. Best feature is the spring loaded case holder jaws. It centers the case and allows it to float in the die, resulting in low runout (straight bullets). I also have the Ultramag, and it works like anyother press, but handles my 300 ultra where the coax will not. In terms of good quality gear, there are several good manufactures. I like Sinclairs stuff and K&M for case prep (neck turning, deburing, flash hole/pocket uniforming and the like). Redding makes really good dies, but there are several other quality manufactures. I would buy a balance beam scale even if you are going to go with an electric. Electric scales can be sensitive and drift from one load to the next. Ultimately, it all depends on the uniformity that you are trying to achieve. A lot of folks want the very best, but cannot shoot good enough to realize the benefit of the best. It is easy to get to the point of splitting hairs and diminishing returns. Who ever it is, make sure that it is made here in the USA. [/QUOTE]
