[QUOTE="Savage 12BVSS, post: 2046356, member: 112413"] I like the summit much better, it sits next to a rockchucker I used for about 20years. The rockchucker does depriming duty now and will forever probably. I LOVE the summit press cams over, that's part of straight concentric loads. Rockchucker can be adjusted for a little cam over but not full overcenter camming. I really don't notice any difference in moving the die down to the shellholder/case vs moving the shellholder/case up to the die, seems about the same. If your going to use the press sitting I would suggest one change.......buy the shorter handle. You may like the long handle it comes with but I didn't. You will learn a lot of good info on the press comparsion. If I was doing it over again I would buy the summit again it preformed just like the great press shootout comparison predicted as far as runout and performance. I was bouncing between the co-ax - mec marksman - and summit from posts on here and information read and digested, when it came time to do it the co-ax was on indefinite backorder as it frequently is and there was no marksman to find as well. Now looking back I believe circumstance led me to buy the one I would love. I moved it back on my bench some because I didn't like the way the rockchucker hung over the side (I was always bumping it) that was also a nice feature. Hope you pick a good one that you will like! Good Shooting :) [/QUOTE]
