    Question about RCBS tool?

    I recently got this "press"?? in a deal. It appears to be a 12ga decapper/sizer. Who can shed more light on this piece of equipment? also appx value?

    Hi,
    I have the same one except mine is a Lachmiller the one yours was copied from when RCBS bought out Lachmiller. It probably is for a 12 ga. shell. It deprimes and resizes the brass head on the hull. They usually go for about $30 if in perfect working condition! Yea,you won't be able to sale it and quit your day job, I'm afraid!

    An interesting aside to the Lachmiller press. Redding bought parts from Lachmiller and assembled them into a reloading press. It was their first press and actually works Ok, though the cast "C" arms redding uses are fragile.

    That looks just like my RCBS one I bought about 6 months ago out of curiosity.

    I was wanting a Lachmiller at the time, but they had all dried up.

    I haven't mounted it yet, not quite sure where I want to place it yet.
