Hi,
Do you know who makes a press that will take 2" thread?
Thx!

Old Western Scrounger made a press that would do up to 25mm reloading. I think that it may have had 2" thread. Only available used now. They go for around 2k if you can even find one.

The Hollywood Senior Turret press had a large hole, I don't know what size but they had a set of 10 Gage shot gun dies for it.

I've seen where a log splitter was used for reloading 20mm lahti before (not sure on die size. With disaster resulting from overworked primer pockets on a gun that fired from a fixed firing pin.

The Hollywood presses have a 1-1/8"-18 tpi die thread. This is common and was used by most of the early press makers.

CH4D offers 14.5x114mm dies, which have 2" diameter thread. And I am wondering what press those were designed for.

Some handload 4bore, they should have large presses for those monsters!?

You might be able to convert one of the RCBS 50 cal presses (ammomaster )to use 2" dies. Bore out the 7/8" upper piece or convert the 1.5" part.
