Have a Texan **CAST IRON**reloading press for sale. I don't know anything about them or the history of this one. It appears to be in Original box. I don't believe the box will survive shipping, but if buyer wants me to try I will. It has paper work and some parts are still sealed in plastic. I do not know if it is complete or not. LOOK CLOSE AT PICTURES WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET. If you need more pictures just ask.

******I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE TO BOX IN SHIPPING******If buyer wants original box he will have to PAY ACTUAL SHIPPING COST!!!!! If not shipping will be flat rate $20.00 PLUS WINNING BID

Starting bid will be $30.00 (PLUS SHIPPING) and Auction will end January 1, 2018 at NOON eastern standard time

Good luck and Thanks
Doug

Does this press take standard RCBS-style shell holders?

This is a great press, well made and easy to use with it's offset handle.

Their literature describes it as the Model 256 Double C press, with the body cast of semi-steel. Introduced in 1968.
