[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1739042, member: 97196"] I prefer the Forster Co-ax press and use the chargemaster exclusively. Prefer the Forster die locking rings on all my dies when using the Co-ax press. Recommend setting the chargemaster to meter 0.1 gr less than needed and use a pick to manually draw out single grains of powder to get precise as possible powder charge (1-4 additional kernels of powder on average to target weight), if you are that picky. Another measure you can take is to place a plastic straw inside the metering tube (see youtube) and place 2 empty primer boxes under the front of the chargemaster so it aims slightly up hill and it will improve consistency considerably. Seems you wouldn’t have to take these extra steps to improve factory equipment but it works. The Frankford hand primer tool is very nice but I don’t mind using the Co-ax for priming either. Imperial wax is what I use. [/QUOTE]
