I have the HF 20 ton press.
I can't say that it is better than the 12 ton since I never had the 12 ton.
But my compression capabilities are much higher.
I haven't got as high as 95% compression ratio yet.
But I am not spending all my time consintrating on trying to match factory powder.
85 % powder works great for my front stuffers , especially with 15% more powder.
But I can see why you want to match factory powder if you are shooting cartridge guns.
Besides, I got my press on sale years ago.
And it wasn't that much more than the wanted for the 12 ton model.
