[QUOTE="David Emerson, post: 1823546, member: 112579"] If you live close enough to a big store that has many presses set up go and try them. Personally I like the side handle presses but to each his own. And for your Hornady AP. It works ok for short pistol cases but the shellplate wire spring retainer does not hold the cases tight enough so the rifle cases flop around. Not good and the Hornady priming system sucks. Also the powder measure transfer tube is small diameter.If you try to run coarser tube type powder it will bridge.DANGER. So yes forget about the Hornady AP press for rifle ammo. [/QUOTE]
