Does anyone know offhand the thread measurements for an Echo press ram. I have an Echo shellholder that I want to adapt to fit modern rams.
Thanks
Bill

Micah 6:8
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
"I don't have hobbies - I'm developing a robust post-apocalyptic skill set"
I may be discharged and retired but I'm sure I did not renounce the oath that I solemnly swore!
Bill, my rule of thumb is to always alter the less expensive part. Since the orphan shell holder is one of a kind, I’d be inclined to alter that befor attacking a press ram… or is there more to the story?

"It aint easy being green!"
having the Echo shellholder, it is my intent to fab a base which will fit RBCS style rams that I can thread the shellholder on.
No modding rams intended.

I have an Echo press that was converted by a previous owner to accept standard shellholders. Can send you some pics if interested.
