    WTS: Star Universal Reloading Press 45 ACP

    SPF to LUBEDUDE

    Picture apologies: I used to be able to rotate pics, save, and they would show correctly... not today...

    I love the care and precision with which these presses were built, but I find more use for the versatility of my Dillon 550 and I’d rather put money into other shooting projects than admire these Stars. I also expect that you guys on this forum will appreciate these presses, so I want to give you first grabs. I have a few extra charge bars, so if the buyer would like a different charge bar than what is currently in the machine, I may be able to swap it out prior to shipment. They’re not expensive to buy in the used market.

    This press has a mounting hole for a Hulme case feeder (not included), and no safety at the last station. The toolhead is drilled/tapped for a separate crimper, but there is no crimp die included with this press. This press was not complete when I got it. The powder tube was broken off its base, plus the primer tube and follower were missing. I bought new parts from Star Machine Works in New Jersey. They show clearly in the pictures.

    I disassembled/cleaned/lubricated/adjusted this press when I got it. It produces very nice ammo. I currently have this set up with a charge bar for 5.4 grains of Bullseye. I have measured the throw from this bar at only 5.0 grains of Bullseye… Not sure why the discrepancy… Your mileage may vary…

    I will sell this press on this forum for $425... Shipping is extra. Depending on your zip code, expect to pay $35 - $40 and I will package it very well... no PayPal please, but I'm open to other forms of payment.

    First to claim with "I'll take it" in this thread is the winner...

    pm sent,
    Calling a criminal invader an "illegal immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "unlicensed pharmacist."
