    It really doesn't matter at all to anyone, it's just idle conversation. You'll also find threads involving recipes and discussions about the weather.
    I had two presses; a Lee 3-holer and a T7. Then I ordered one from WR Buchanan the other day...
    What amazes me is half of the respondents owned between 4 and 10 presses. I'm not crazy. Statistically I'm actually behind the curve!
    Warning: I know Judo. If you force me to prove it I'll shoot you.

    I have to many under the bench one Hornady progressive, one Lee Progressive, RCBS Big Max, One Corbin Swage Press by Dave Corbin, one Walnut Hill press by Richard Corbin, RCBS Rock Chucker, one Redding T7 Turret, one Ponsness Warren 800 shot shell press.
    I think it's time to clean the man cave and get rid of the unused boat anchors

    Oh forgot the 3 hole C&H H press

    Y'all have a Merry Christmas.

    Had some spare time, plus I had to get out a part for a press, so I started to make a list of the presses I have.
    I think I might have missed some, but it's close enough.
    Around 22 of them.
    Mostly old ones.
    The two I use the most..............
    CH monster O press.... forming cases.
    Lee small press........deprime....prime.
    Lee 1000.....30 Carbine right now.
    RCBS RC........size cases
    Lee Turret.......For reloading.
    I enjoy collecting old tools as a whole.
    If i ever finish my reloading room, I could keep track of what I have.

    Makes the rest of us feel like we are not alone in this addition. Like for me. Just two weeks ago my wife said hay whats in this box that it is so heavy. I have no clue been sitting there for five years. I found a Dillon 450 set up in 44 mag. Forgot I had it. So 14 that I am aware of at the moment.
    Stop being blinded by your own ignorance.

    It is funny how presses breed and have young, started off with a Dillon 550, now have 12 different presses. Still can only use one at a time. Have been slowly selling some of them off, have more to get rid of..

    Of corse last one I bought gets a good work out.
    At one time I had several including 2 LNL presses with case and bullet feeders, a couple of T7s a PW375, two Pacific 266s, 2 Pacific 366s, a Pacific DL 155, a Lachmiller, two Lyman T presses and a Rockchucker. The Rockchucker, T7, 266, 155 and the PW are all that remain. Had to downsize big time 4 years ago.

    I guess I'm getting lazy as I age because even though the tool heads are removable and easily swapped out I'm now at 4 progressives (1 Dillon 450 and three 550's) a Big Max single stage, one Lee turret I got for a friend and a for sale Hornady Pro-jector.
    Regards,

    Gary

    Started off with a C and H press and then got an RCBS Rock Chucker had dies for just about everything, all lost in a mountain wild fire in 2012. had lots of reloading books, the one I miss the most is an original, Why not reload your own by Col. Townsen Whalen. When the pump house /reloading room burned they must have seen it from space
