Geesh!

I really like my 480 SRH. More good brass would do nicely.

In the meantime, I just work my 44s more dillegently.

Best regards

I am puzzled because their web site indicates the brass is still out of stock and no back order yet:

Great stuff there!

I built my own heater base and fitted it with a couple of magnetic engine heater units. I am pleasantly surprised that a 100 watt light bulb can heat that well.

I like your...

I thought about making my own links, but I have not seen where the original ones are that onerous yet.

If I go with curved links that have "horns" to maintain minimal overcentering, perhaps I get...

Do you use this version of curved links?

If so, are you prone to skin your hands on those protruding horns?

Thanks

Yes, my Coax is definitely a keeper! I watched/read just about every review and article I found on the net plus volumes of posts on forums before I dove in.

The leverage will likely improve once...

Yes, it has the wear plate.

I had not thought about some grease to keep the springs a little more tame.

I saw a video of a fellow who mounted his coax under his bench at approx 45 degrees to it...

I have been admiring the Coax from afar for some time but just acquired one and had my first session with it.

My reloading history goes back to 1975 and a RCBS Jr.

For 35 years that's all there...

My wife is pretty tough on throwing out food stuffs due to safety.

As I am way past my "Best Buy Date" it makes me a little nervous when she gets to tossing stuff ....... as to when my "pull date"...

Coax press arrived yesterday and I must say I can not find fault in the finnish! For a "cosmetic second" as Forester sold it I am very happy.

I am going to start on a 2x6 plank and C-clamps to...

Winger Ed,

I sure enjoy your mirth! That alone is worth belonging here!

Not really but I sure feel like it sometimes! Lol!

HS6 in three 44s and my 480 Ruger is a very good upper medium load propellant!

Better yet, I have some at our farm shop. I was waiting until it arrived and size it up. Have a lathe and could turn down a heavier piece.

I will likely build a custom mount as well. But a...

Thank you for the tip.

I read the review on Accurate Shooter and the author extolled the Hornady rings and I have some of those. As I understand it the press comes with two Forester rings.

Talk about a " Hog Hammer"!

That is pretty trick! I will need to get a few of those, for handloading and also farm shop and ranch work!

Thanks

Thanks everyone!

I will likely get the Forester rings but I will go touch and go in the begining because I have a cross section of brands and sort out the situation.

I want to see if the press...

Thanks, I am pretty stoked!

I finally pulled the trigger on a Forester Coax press!

..... and it's a deal!

Check out the Forester site: Cosmetic blemish

New press for just a sliver over 3 bills to my door! My lucky...

Ah, now would we do that?
