Bought a Brown Bair

[vacek]

I picked up a nice Brown Bair press Wednesday ($35).

I didn't even need Black Friday to get it.It is the H-Frame with 3 stations. It's in very very nice shape and only needs a little cleaning. I will post a pic in the near future after cleaning it up. That sucker must weigh better than 20 lbs. It is all iron.

I may set it up permanently for my 308 Winchester. I haven't decided yet.

I have one, it is very nice. Rather long swing. Have to buy three shell holders for each caliber loaded on it. I find that I usually use two stations. I deprime on the back station and have a plastic tube running from the hollow shell holder holder to an old pill bottle. Works well, but I don't have the priming set-up either.

Hi,
I bought one 10 years ago at my local Gun Shop. The owner refered to it as a boat anchor and let me have it for $30! I told him if he got any more in let me know. I used it for 10 years and enjoyed it as it is a nice heavy loader. Finally went to a PW MetII and sold it on E-Bay for $175,so I would buy them all day for $35 if I could!!! Enjoy, you made a great score!

Enjoy it! I have a CH 333 (3 station) press, that is very similar to a Bair. I have it set up with the CH auto primer feed and push button powder measure. It is dedicated for .380 Auto, and does a good job making ammo. Its faster than single stage, and fun to use.
