    Echo Press Info

    Does anyone know offhand the thread measurements for an Echo press ram. I have an Echo shellholder that I want to adapt to fit modern rams.
    Thanks

    Bill, my rule of thumb is to always alter the less expensive part. Since the orphan shell holder is one of a kind, I’d be inclined to alter that befor attacking a press ram… or is there more to the story?

    having the Echo shellholder, it is my intent to fab a base which will fit RBCS style rams that I can thread the shellholder on.
    No modding rams intended.

    I have an Echo press that was converted by a previous owner to accept standard shellholders. Can send you some pics if interested.
