[daisy]

I'm using an RCBS Rock Chucker IV. I also have in my range box a Lee hand press. I use this more than the Rock Chucker. I now predominantly use inline dies and only use the press for the calibers that I do not have inline dies for.

I also have a Simplex press that I intend to set up-although I'm not overly confident that it will produce the concentricity and consistency that I require.

3 RCBS Ammo Masters for my Bigger Cals and 2 Rock chuckers for the other stuff....... Plus a couple of Hornady's up the other end

Yeah it was getting a bit much running on Factory ammo mate......as you know $20 a shot is stupid when I can reload for half that.
Anyway its near finished......just go to move it into the warehouse, which will happen the week.....saves doubling up on the security system, although it has its own, but not as comprehensive as the other building.

That's a bummer having to move it mate, would have been handy being able to walk outside and into the man cave and get into reloading, I understand why though, lot of $$ tied up there and definitely better to be safe than sorry. So how'd ya go at Lue?

[Harb]

Yeah good mate.......got to shoot all the big cals with the test loads.....pretty happy, shame it was only for the day....or half day by the time we set up and then packed down......but we achieved what we set out to do.
looking forward to going somewhere for a longer stint...... will let you know and see if you want to come along

[Croaky]

Redding O frame, Simplex turret that Iv'e had since jesus played full back for jerusalum.

I would have come out except I figured she'd be bloody hot there so thought better of it! I don't run real well in the heat as you could imagine (not much better in the cold either mind)!

Yeah mate anytime you want some company just give me a buzz and if I can do it I'll definitely be there.

Thanks everyone for your help.

Herb that's a very nice setup. .

What kind of projectile run out should I be going for. Or what are the better press to help stop runout.

[stinkitup]

Lee Classic Breech lock, had a classic cast for my big martini when I had it, they classic cast are a good press. No complaints.

[Harb]

If you are worried about runout, and you should be if you are going for ultimate accuracy, you need to buy Dies that have a "Follower".......
Its a little steel collar that drops to the bottom of the seating die, and aligns the projectile as you cycle the press and follows the projectile and keeps it properly aligned as the bullet is seated........companies like Hornady make such dies.......have a look around for others....sure they would as well.

Classic Cast bought for $135 a few years back. Lost my Lee handpress which was also damn handy. Owned RCBS in the past, all bar the Partner press I dont miss. I'd love to add a Lee Classic turret to my bench.
