Picture apologies: I used to be able to rotate pics, save, and they would show correctly... not today...

I love the care and precision with which these presses were built, but I find more use for the versatility of my Dillon 550 and I’d rather put money into other shooting projects than admire these Stars. I also expect that you guys on this forum will appreciate these presses, so I want to give you first grabs. I have a few extra charge bars, so if the buyer would like a different charge bar than what is currently in the machine, I may be able to swap it out prior to shipment. They’re not expensive to buy in the used market.

This press has a mounting hole for a Hulme case feeder (not included), and no safety at the last station. The toolhead is drilled/tapped for a separate crimper, but there is no crimp die included with this press. This press was not complete when I got it. The powder tube was broken off its base, plus the primer tube and follower were missing. I bought new parts from Star Machine Works in New Jersey. They show clearly in the pictures.

I disassembled/cleaned/lubricated/adjusted this press when I got it. It produces very nice ammo. I currently have this set up with a charge bar for 5.4 grains of Bullseye. I have measured the throw from this bar at only 5.0 grains of Bullseye… Not sure why the discrepancy… Your mileage may vary…

I will sell this press on this forum for $425... Shipping is extra. Depending on your zip code, expect to pay $35 - $40 and I will package it very well... no PayPal please, but I'm open to other forms of payment.

First to claim with "I'll take it" in this thread is the winner...
