Thanks for the washer idea all.
Since I only have a #5 holder at this time (.223), still need others.
Let me know if anyone has any they can part with.

Actually, the Herter's shell holders will work, but their threading is such that when they are fully tightened, the slot faces the back web of the press. I'm not a machinist, so no way to cut the...

I finally found a Wells Professional Model C press this weekend. Does anyone have any Wells shell holders? They're the threaded type, same threads as the Herters threaded versions, with a shorter...

Greetings: I have a good supply of Vihtavuori 3n37. On the Ramshot Burn Rate Table, it falls between Herco and Blue Dot. Anyone know of any data for .30 cal boolits?
Thanks

James you're right, like the Hunt-Wildes on the RCBS presses. The All American and Spartan shapes are unique, tapered on the ends instead of uniform diameter running the length.

I'm fixing up an All American. I'd like to get a plastic grip for the handle. The smaller size one on a Spartan is a "Hungerford Model A". Can anyone read the name on the All American version? ...

As a matter of fact, got what I thought was a Senior post on there, but didn’t get a whole unit-there is a male threaded post that threads into the priming post assembly (holder, post, springs and...

Couldn’t resist, pried the drop tube out- it’s pressed not threaded. The tube itself has a stepped portion slightly narrower than the rest of the tube, which pushes into the casting. I see Redding...

Greetings. Looking for a source for Hollywood Senior priming post parts. I have the upper portion with stem/springs/post, but need the stem that screws into the housing holding all the above on one...
Forum: Vintage Reloading Gear
Thanks for the reply. I emailed Redding to see if they can help. Trying to keep myself from prying on what's left of the tube still in the casting, and obliterating it completely. Hopefully I'll get...

I have an old (brown) Redding Master powder measure and the drop tube snapped.
Does anyone know if the tube is pressed in or threaded? The material is opaque, and I can’t see if there are threads or...
Thanks Froggie- I figured that would be the best route. I'm lucky that the threads appear to be ok. Thanks for the confirmation.
Greetings. I have a 310 tool with a set screw that is pretty buggered up and would like to replace. Is that screw proprietary or can I get one at the hardware store? The one that's presently in there...

Has anyone replaced the hammer spring and the check valve spring for the earlier 760s from the hardware store? I know people buy generic o rings for them, but haven't seen any mentions of spring...

It is an incredible press. Until I find what I want, a Rock Chucker handle I found as I was leaving a gun show, for $2, works fine.

I have a good size store of Vihtavuori 3n37 powder. I have only seen data for handgun, and plan to use it for 9mm, 44 mag, and 38 Special. Just wondering if anyone has tried it for rifle, espcially...
Forum: Vintage Reloading Gear
Thanks for the response.
That's the backup plan, if I can't find the original. If one isn't a machinist, where's the best place to look for round stock? Maybe I've got to learn how to order from...

I was lucky enough to win an auction on a website for a Bair Brown Bair H post press. Unfortunately, the seller didn't do a good job of packing and the operating handle was lost in the mail. So......
