Are you referring to the CSP-1? If so, I've got one, but since I have several other presses for reloading, mine is used exclusively for swaging bullets.

Hope this helps.

I use one for the heavy work. Big rifle calibers and forming brass. Excellent equipment.

I have several other pfresses myself. I don't know if I will ever get into swaging. So I may sell the Corbin in the future, or trade it.

I will call second dibs then. Nothing wrong with the CSP-1

BUT, you've got a great press if you do ever get into swaging. You've got the best of both worlds IMO (I'd hang onto it)

I've used mine in the reloading mode a few times, it's darned sure true. I keep mine setup for swaging, Rock Chucker for loading.

Yes it is a newer one. I still have not got the hang of posting pictures. Soon I hope.

Mike,
Keep it.
I have one and don't plan on swaging either. I use mine for reloading exclusively. Great for case forming and rifle sizing. Smooth as butter and tons of leverage.

Keep it. Give it a try and you will love it.
Sell it and the money will flow like sand through your fingers.

Your correct about smooth. I think that is due to the Timken bearings. Dave told me a great story about those bearings. He will not build junk or ****. Probably about the best all aroujnd press other than my coax. I now have 2 Bonanza coax presses. I'M rebuilding one and it is getting powder coated.
Can't wait to see that one.
