    Alot of them.LOL

    These are old pics but this just a few of what I own. I currently have 18 rifle and pistol setups and 7 for shotshell. My favorite is the old Hollywood 12 station turret. Yes, I have an illness! LOL.

    I'm a piker when it comes to some of you guys.

    Just two LocknLoad AP and a Redding T-7



    I know it looks like a small space but there is a drop down desk in the chest on the left and a big desk on the right so I can spread out.

    I used to have four presses; now I only have three. I traded my first press (RCBS Partner) to a fellow forum member for some linotype a few months back.

    RockChucker II does all my rifle stuff, some pistol (small batches) and all depriming. I deprime and tumble my cases before loading.


    RCBS Ammomaster does most of the pistol stuff. It may do my 22-250 in the future too depending on the volume needed.


    MEC 9000G 12 gauge. That thing has loaded many thousands of trap loads for me.

    With regards to gun control in this country, everyone should be asking themselves one question:
    What is it that this government feels they need to do, but can't do, unless the citizens of this nation are first disarmed?
    (I seriously doubt you can come up with any plausible answers that you will like...)

    My small lot --
    A small C&H C press using ram shellholders --

    Herters #3 for most work -

    Lachmiller -- Kept in reserve -- very close copy of the herters, rather herters is a copy of the lachmiller - nice that the shellholders are the same

    Since lachmiller had no priming feature, a nice lachmiller bench primer is in service. I do believe RCBS modified and kept it in their line after acquiring lachmiller-

    Almost forgot -- Lyman Tong (310)

    Pacific Super Deluxe C bought mid '63. (This is the one that gets used.)
    Lee reloader bought the week that press was introduced. (sizing and priming)
    Lyman 310 in half a dozen calibers. (In a drawer in my camper.)
    Lee Loaders in half a dozen different calibers. (In the same drawer.)
    Lee 4-hole Turret. ( Getting used more and more as it becomes more familiar.)

    Dillon XL650. Loading for 45acp, 9mm and 223 remington. Started out w/just the basic XL650 press and added the auto-case feeder system later on. Dillon equip does cost more than a lot of presses/equip out there but their no bs warranty and customer service are tops. I also like their pistol dies as you can easily remove/replace the seating die stem to clean the die w/out losing your setting. Actually kind of wish I would have been the guy that invented them.

    Started on a Lyman accupress, loaded a ton of ammo on it and it's still going strong, if missing most of it's paint.
    Lee pro 1000 set up for 45 acp
    Lyman orange crusher
    Lee loadmaster that is in pieces under my bench but that will eventually be set up for .223

    Kind of want a 550 not sure for what since i have my bases pretty well covered.

    Currently I have on my bench a RockChucker (rifle), a Lee Classic Cast (pistol) and a Lee "C" Frame press for decapping and bullet sizing duties. On my other bench I have a Lyman 4500 "C" clamped to it, also have a MEC Sizemaster in 12ga. that was given to me on the floor that also gets clamped on when needed. Have another MEC that has been cannabalized for parts, but I use it for 20ga. loading (yes it turns out a nice shell).
    You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

    Update.

    I decided to take the Co-Ax plunge. The companion A2 is a recent gift from a good chum with whom I build rifles. What a monstah! (The press, not the chum.)

    I make long and short handles with 1.5" phenolic balls for each press. (Haven't gotten to the A2 yet.)
