New to the 45acp. Send me off in the right direction.
Im loading with ACME 230g RN coated.
What are you using for OAL, and what is your favorite powder.
I tried 4g bullseye at a OAL of...

That sucks, If I were closer, I would save it for you. Most of it would be brought back to life.

My RC has "82" stamped on it, which happens to be the year I bought it :-)

I keep my scales set up, on shelves, eye level. My chargemaster and PACT are also on separate shelves, at eye level and easy to drain. Dust is an issue since I tumble in my reloading room(getting...

Any hardware store will have those E-clips/C-clips. Thats where I get mine. Lowes and Home Depot probably wont

Most of the pins need to be driven out with a brass drift and a hammer

I do believe they are the same
Try Oriellys Auto Parts for snap ring pliers, they have some descent ones that I use as a Diesel Tech.

I have pics of my TLJr but with photobucket "gone" I have no way to post them. I will see if I can find another image hosting website to share them here.
My TLJr has the "Y" side brackets

I have a True Line Jr that I converted a while back with one of the new turrets, works perfectly!

Thanks for all of the input men, I decided it probably will not work for my press and I probably wouldn't use it much even if it did.

I have bench primers and hand primers. I sometimes like to try new stuff and the old style primer system on my RC doesnt work very well, even though its all new and just replaced.
I'm a big fan of...

I collect Redding and RCBS scales so I have about 20 more than I need.

I put a "T" handle on my "C". I also made a 90* bend in it so that the T handle is vertical when the ram is up. I use this press for pulling bullets. With the "handle down-ram down" action, it just...

There are so many good answers to this question.
But if I had to get by on one press for everything, it would be a LEE Classic Turret. But then again, maybe a Rock Chucker, Big Boss, Super...

I have an original Rock Chucker that I bought in 1982, it even has the date stamped under the bushing. I just restored it and I use it daily, its been a great press. I think the RC2 is made in China,...

I had mine out last night to swap it to another new to me Uniflow.

The LCT is about as versatile and simple of a press you can get and do production/accuracy loads, its a great compromise.

Lyman's EZ Trim shell holder chuck thing (can't think what they call it) would work as well
