I'd like to find one. I had used FC60's press for reforming 32s into a useful thing.

They are a roughly 10" long hexagon with a ram but they don't seem to be marked in any manner. Anyone have one?

I have one that I got from a member here with an assortment of dies.
Simple press and dies are easy to make for pistol bullets without an ogive.
I think that CH made a press that used similar dies.

I have one that I converted to make .224 bullets using 22 rimfire cases. I scaled up that design and made a press capable of swaging any reasonable size jacketed bullet. I use it for .375 and .416 using tubing or brass cartridge case jackets. IIRC I used 38 special cases for the 375 and 30-30 for the 416. Makes a cheap practice bullet.
