    Nice holder. I too got tired of searching for my tubes so I made a rack for mine too. Also used a Sharpie to identify size and put clear tape on them to preserve the writing.

    Good fix on your Chi-Com press. You're absolutely right, RCBS should've addressed this problem years ago, instead they opted to lose business over a simple thing like spent primers.

    This fix would work for the earlier Rock Chuckers, but you would have to mill a small slot in the back of the casting as the stroke is too short and primer residue would make its way into the ram...

    I talked with the folks at RCBS and they told me that drilling deep holes was the reason why they don't do it. I told them I had no problem and I was using manual machinery. I guess their CNC...

    Greg, where have you seen Berdan primers for sale? We have looked high and low and it seems as though all the suppliers in the US no longer carry them. Someone said that Berdans are restricted from...

    Always used to use Pilkington's Rust Blue in the past, but thought I would give Andy's formula a chance and am glad I did. Although time consuming (as is any rust blue), the results were just as good...

    I know I'm a bit late on this thread, but my choice would be the RCBS Rock Chucker Supreme. I can't think of any caliber (other than cases based on the 50BMG) that it can't handle. Combined with my...

    My personal choice for speed, accuracy, and reliability is the Forster Power Trimmer. Once set up on the drill press, you can zip through 1000 cases in no time flat. I wouldn't think of any other.
