Precision was a heavy duty C type press. 1960"s- 70's. Very well Built. It was in The early Handloaders Digest. Vey strong Indeed. Nickel Moly cast iron, weight 14 lb. Standard dies and shell holders. As far as I know They did not make Different Model.
Don't Know if the CO was Bought out or went out
I'm sure Pressman will Chime in shortly.

Looks strong, and the C presses have easier accessing for reloading. O presses have all but eliminated the old C presses for most folks. Still, over than trying to resize 50 BMG that press looks plenty stout.

Most of the "older" presses were plenty strong enough. It's the leverage system that is their "weak" point compared to a new press.

C type or any open frame design presses can look really strong but they will still spring open when used for full length resizing.

It is real easy to test. Attach an indicator to the base of the frame with the indicator contact on the face the die lock ring contacts. FL size a case and watch the indicator as the frame springs open.
