Never heard of Red River Rick but went and looked. Care to elaborate on what makes them the best non-locking handles?
I’m easily distracted (case of late-onset ADD) so I went and did a little inventory. I was thinking most of my Lee handles had alignment problems but I noticed my worst alignment was with an RCBS set of handles which adds a little wear on the alignment pins if you are a little careless in closing.
I generally have only one mould for each caliber but the 38-55 and the 40-65s are an exception. Then again I have two and three of those calibers respectively. I have two 32-40s as well but as yet have not picked up a mould for the Ballard. Brooks recommends Saeco handles with his moulds so I have intended to replace that one and I don’t have a set of handles for the Creedmoor. Just for grins and giggles here the list I just made:
Caliber Mould/Handles
30-30 Lyman/Lee
32-20 LBT/Lee
32Spcl RCBS/Lee
32-40 LBT/Lee
35Rem RCBS/RCBS
35-40 Brooks/Lee *want to replace these.
38-55 Accurate RD Clone/Lee
38-55 LBT/Lee
38-55 Old West NASA/Lee
38-50 Moss/RCBS
40-63 Accurate/Lee
40-65 RCBS 350/Lee
40-65 BACo Money/Locking BACo
40-65 Saeco/Saeco
40-65 BACo Creedmoor/None
45-70 Accurate/Lee
I’ve got two I was gonna stock with Saeco; money permitting I’d probably replace some others - but if Red River Rick is better than Saeco they are also cheaper unless his shipping is over the top.
Guess I'm straying considerable distance from the path here:-) ADD is hard on the original intent of these threads.
