I have had this press a few years now. I don't exactly remember who I got it off of but it was probably someone off of Accuratereloading. I wish this thing could talk. I was told it belonged to Fred Huntington and he had the bent handle made special for it. It is bent and welded in 2 places- nice job, too. It hasn't been used yet and just resides with my other equipment in a safe place.

I figures it would be more appropriate in reloading equipment.

Beau, Do you load for the 50 Browning? That is a massive press; you think that Fred might have done some swaging with it? Let us know when you use it.

Moved as requested, a very cool tool there.

I don't load for .50 cal. I just ran across this press a while back and thought I would share some reloading history. I don't think you can change out the collet holding the threads in order to put the larger .50 cal. dies in. The ammomaster will let you do that. I had one and didn't like it- traded it to a friend of mine who loaded .338 Lapua.
