Charlie, That is a very cool video on ole "Granny". I think RCBS wants to hire you to promote their products. The Green Machine appears to work pretty well under your watchful eye. Nice music IMHO. Keep up the good work.

Mark 5:34 And He said to her (Jesus speaking), "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace and be healed of your affliction."
I liked the press operation and the music was ok. I prefer Cello music or loud obnoxious punk music music, but not bad.
In the same vein I have always wanted to "tinker" with a Piggyback by RCBS. I hear they can be ornery or wonderful, depending on who you talk to and how you run them.
You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

I don't think so. He is gone not banned. Found him on a Ford truck forum. He liked cast steel presses. Miss him.
If you prime off the press, it MAY work IF you are careful and slow and watchful.
I had one. I hated it. YMMV
Have a small vacuum at the ready to pick up powder spills...they will happen as you try to speed up and forget to index the case feeder. Adding a case feeder would greatly enhance the machine. Charlie is correct about the bullet seater having some slop. Not a big deal for blasting ammunition. His method of adding the seater stem to the final crimp is a good one for target ammunition.
There is a reason that RCBS stopped making the machine quickly after it was introduced. BTW, I had one of the early units and do not know if it was ever improved. I paid $600 for it when I was newly married and it was a lot of money back then. Worst investment I ever made on a reloader.

What are they asking for it? Might work as a parts machine!
