Hi,
Back from the dead!

VERY nice job!

Working on a DL-300 shotshell loader as we speak.

Got it in VERY rough shape and this will be a labor of love, (couldn't pay me to do this!)

[WarEagleEd]

Wow, that looks good!

[mikeORB]

Thanks guys!! It did cost more than its worth but now it will be used by a third generation in my family

Have a 333 I am working on. How did you clean up the press column rods? What is the extra ear (no threads etc) used for? THANKS LB

[mikeORB]

I had all of the chrome parts stripped and redone for $90. More than worth the expense. I'm not sure what extra ear you are asking about. The 907 is a four position shot press. The right is final crimp die, center is prime/powder/wad/shot, left is size/deprime die and on the rear (may be the extra ear) is the pre-crimp die.

[kokomokid]

Thanks Mike, my 333 is the same as yours but taped 7/8 x 14 for rifle dies except for the ear that must be for the pre crimp. Nice job on the restore.

Nice restoration. You should be proud.

Dam fine work

[mikeORB]

These presses are pretty much ghosts. Very little is available in the way of parts or written information.

Found an old print add in a Guns magazine from 1964 on this press and one other CH press. I'll figure out how to get them posted up.

This is from the 1964 issue of Guns magazine. I have other files I will get posted up for the 205 Offset press as well.

I bought this tubing to replace the powder/shot tubes and it came in a bit smaller than the vendor quoted. Supposed to be a replacement for the old Hornady/Pacific 366 loaders and measure 2". This stuff is actually 1.9" with a 1/16 wall. If anyone needs it let me know.
