FYI: For those members who are not familiar with RCBS presses, that is not a Rock Chucker press

It is a Reloader Special - 5 press. The kit is listed for $390 on RCBS's web site. So $150 is a great deal. This would still be a good press to start with.
Contents: Reloader Special -5 Press, Uniflow Powder Measure, 1,500-grain Digital Pocket Scale, Nosler 7th Edition Reloading Manual, Hand Priming Tool, Universal Case Loading Block, Debur Tool, Powder Funnel, Case Slick Spray Lube, Powder Trickler-2.
That is quit a lot for $150.

Hi
Very good deal and nothing wrong with the RS Presses

The old JR 2 and JR 3 and their RS clones were made of cast iron. At some point in time, RCBS started making the RS presses of aluminum.

My FYI was intended not to degrade the kit's press, only to point out and perhaps educate someone that the included press isn't a Rock Chucker. Nor was I denigrating aluminum presses -- I had one for years.

And yes, that is an excellent sale price.

Great price. Just the powder measure and stand go for over hundred.
