RCBS Ammomaster - a hold over from when I was loading long cartridges for my double rifles
Co-Ax - My most used press, I really love it now that I replaced the side linkage with the new curved pieces.
Redding Big Boss 2
Zero 419 - waiting for it to show up
I have 3.

Rock chucker
Hornady lnl
Oh Boy, the ones i can remember are 2 dillon 550, 1-1050, 5 Mec, a lee 12 ga, a pacific 12 ga. and 11ish assorted single stage and turret presses.
I was lucky enough to see the legendary Texans' collection of every brand of press, and every version those makers offered. Hundreds.
JW P.s. I never saw a press I didn't like ;^)
Well, I acquired another 550 which came with a Dillon Strong mount, wow that mount has me spoiled. No more dipping of my shoulder on every ram upstroke it's made a world of difference in my comfort. I bought a second mount and I'll likely get more for the rest of the Dillon presses.
I saw the title of thread, and suddenly realized that I am in good company. I don't know how many presses I actually have, so I must count them:
2 or 3 RCBS Jr's (one set up at all times just to load small lots of pistol ammo)
1 RCBS Rock Chucker (Bought new in 1976)
2 Redding "Boss presses"
1 Redding (Don't know model... Same as the old Lachmiller shotshell medal)
2 Dillon RL-550B's (One for lg primers and one for Sm) Only used for pistol ammo.
1 Bonanza Co-Ax (Only used for precision seating...)
2- Precision Reloader "C" type presses (One set up at all times - Only used to pull bullets)
1 Lyman EZ-Loader (Never used... Don't know why I have it...)
1 Lyman Tru-Line Jr. (Don't know why I have this one)
2 or 3 Lyman Tong tools
1 Hollywood Sr. Press
1 CH "H" press
1 Star Reloader progressive...
So that's what? 18? I only use about half of them on a regular basis... Looks like I need to downsize... :blush:
Gosh, I didn't realize I had that many... And I'm not even going to mention Shotshell presses. Or Lubri-sizers, either...
I sold a few presses this winter, I am now staying with 1 Lyman Easy in 12 gauge, and various MEC's from 600jrs. to 9000's in gauges from .410 to 10 . 7 in all .

If you count shotshell, I'm at 14 or 15. Strictly metallic, I got 4.
And i thought that i had too many presses at 10. I’m a slacker fer sure. But an old rcbs rock chucker is currently not in use
I added 2 since the last time I was here!
I got another Forester CoAx and a CH Autochamp MK lll!
Finally got the MK lll up and working, just need some tweeking with primer magazine and shield.
I am going to use the MK lll as a case processor to size, deprime and prime 9mm brass so I can inspect it before running out through my 1050 to load it!
Two - a Harrell’s turret press and a Rockchucker Supreme. I am assuming the 4 Lyman/Ideal 310 tools (which I use for depriming pistol brass off my good presses) do not count. In my fantasy life I use them to make ammo around a camp fire after the fall of civilization. (Which reminds me, I need to stock up on powder and primers.)
11 the last time I counted them.
It used to be 6 but I consolodated and got rid of the Mec Grabber 12 GA press, the Corbin CS2 press, Dillon 550B, and a Rockchucker Jr.
That leaves me with a Rockchucker and a Dillon 550B, not counting 2 Lyman 450's
I am humbled gentleman.
I have 2.
One is a replacement for a 44 year old RockChucker. It broke and RCBS replaced it under warranty.
The other is a Texan 12 ga progressive I found in a garage sale for $10. It was froze up with funky lube and when I managed to free it up it was out of time. I managed with a bit of mechanical skill (talent on loan from God) and internet pictures. Now I need to know if parts are available. I need the primer tube set up. Otherwise I need to feed the primer by hand.
Thanks reading.
