    Rcbs a2

    Well a friend of mine bought some old reloading equipment from an estate and gifted me an old RCBS A2 in very good shape.

    Nice haul!

    It even has the priming arm (unique, AFAIK, to that model) and the holder for the primer tubes.

    Whether you use the system or not, they are not often found.

    If it has a threading bushing in the top for the dies, it is cast steel. If if does not, it is cast iron.

    How much would one made out of cast steel empty my wallet?
