    I finally drank some Blue Kool-Aid....... Pacific B;ue that is!

    having been lusting after a Pacific Super Mag for years I decided to pull the trigger on one! She looks pretty decent in pictures with just superficial rusting on the blued parts? We will know better later in the week when my newest piece of old school cool arrives!

    Hi,
    That's a nice one!

    And it pretty much pegs out the "Cool Meter"!

    Built for you revolver shooters of course! (3 dies!)

    Get the Lyman or Lee sizing charge die and your good to go!!!

    Hey Seagiant,

    I assumed that this one would grab your attention! Surprisingly I have read that they were popular among some of bench rest shooter back in the day. Although it is arriving with a set of .45acp dies installed.

    It's going to be a long week waiting for the post man!

    Hi,
    Yes, another crazy press from the demented mind of Bob Dietmeyer! Ha!

    I always thought of them as a revolver press as I use 4 dies for my 45 Auto reloading!

    Fourth die of course is the Taper Crimp die!

    If you do set it up with the Pacific PM, I'd like a full on front pic of it!!!

    Seagiant,

    I will need to source the primer tubes and holder? Also, I will need to locate a small primer arm. This purchase was strictly what you see is what you get.

    I may need your help/advise as I am relatively unfamiliar with tube priming systems being a Lee Guy!

    Hi,
    It probably works like this RCBS JR3...

    You should (might) be able to get what you need from E-Bay?

    That's what I call an awesome blue press ! Sweet find.

    For primer arms and tubes check with CH4D , they make some universal parts that might work.
    They helped me get an old Eagle Cobra 300 press and a Lyman A-A turret press fitted with parts to make them useable again. Nice folks , very helpful .

    And I'm GREEN, with envy! Nice score! Someone posted a question about one last week and I had to go look up pics of one. It's on my list to acquire, now. That list is getting rather long.......

    Congrats!
