    I like my old RCBS Rock Chucker , but the reloader special also works pretty good. Can't beat their customer service .

    My favorite press is the one I am currently using. I have eight to choose from; all favorites at one time or another.

    My favorite is the only one I have, a Hornady Multi Power, that I bought sometime in the early 70's. The only problem I've had is the primer catcher, I busted it years ago, and it's glued together. Would like to find one, but haven't tried very hard to look for one.

    I googled "The Laws of Reloading", but came up dry. What are these laws of which you speak? lol

    Mine is a small bench. I started with a Classic Cast Breechlock, then bought a second no breechlock. For shure there are better press on the market but the CC is all I need, at a fair priceClick image for larger version.

    Your Dunbar, Brown Bair III, and Herters Super Model 9 presses really caught my eye. I don't think I have ever seen a press of that configuration....where you can put two dies in side by side...is there a name for presses of this style? They look like they would be really convenient!

    Excuse the mess lol...
    I see you have an early Lee Challenger press too. Not my favorite, but mine's the same early type without the steel thread insert.
    In 2020 congress finally forced the VA to provide Agent Orange coverage to Blue Water Navy Vietnam veterans. RIP shipmates that never received proper care.

    Me too. The Classic Turret except for the Mickey Mouse primer feed setup is my favorite or maybe my MEC Sizemaster for shotgun shells.
