DBa, what's the throw on the coax? With the handle way up there it looks like it would come down >120 degrees? If so does that get awkward?Originally Posted by dbateman
Man, would I love it if someone made a pistol- specific press with 30 degree throw and a compound action.
Ignore Alien Orders
I bolted my presses, super sage, etc. to boards and clamped them to my bench in case I changed my mind. Never really changed my mind, so most of the stuff is still clamped to the bench. I recently bolted down the mountng board for my 1050 to my bench so I guess I'm not 100% afraid of commitment.
Loading a bit of 450/400Ne.
The throw would probably be around 120*
I don't mind it when loading standing, but I didn't like it when I was loading sitting.
But that probably had more to do with my bench height and my chair height.
They make a short handle for them, they're just a couple of inches long with a ball on them.
I thought about buying a shorter handle but haven't gotten around to it.
)ETA( why is my picture upside down ?
(ETA2) I fixed it.

Loading a little 348.
Good grief man, you could light a candle and double the amount of light you're working with!
How do you read your scale?
ETA: I see from your prior post there is a little more light in there than in this picture. I really couldn't figure out how that was working.

In garage. Warm enough today to load some .38.
I'm not sure if I had the light in the room off or something, that light gets moved around a bit.Good grief man, you could light a candle and double the amount of light you're working with!

That picture does make it look very dark in there.

Hello all new to the forum, thought this would be a good place to do my first post. I have been Hand-loading for about 30 years or so, and my equipment has not changed too much except the first thing I used was the old LEE Loader for a .30 Carbine and a 38. Now I load for somewhere around 20 firearms and 28 calibers ranging from the .17 Remington to the 416 Rigby. I do a lot of long range shooting with the .338 Lapua Magnum. My thoughts are that if the equipment makes good ammo then it does not mater what color it is. So here is my little corner of the world the blue press is an old Pacific for large rifle and long range rounds and the Lee classic cast turret for small rifle and pistol that I can load 100 rounds of 10 mm in about 30 mi. and that is plenty fast for me because I load for the enjoyment of assembling the ammo by hand.
WTF kinda eggs are you cooking that you can crank 600 rounds out?
