I once made the mistake of letting him pull me into a reloading discussion.
I get dizzy even thinking about that conversation.
Dude has forgotten more about loading ammunition than most of us combined will ever know.
If I had a set up like the one he has in his shop, I'd never settle for anything less than 1/2 MOA.
You can get much more of what you want with a kind word and a gun, than with a kind word alone.

It would have to be one hell of a sale #PoorFag

So, I set up my sizing die per the factory instructions and have been resizing my .308 brass. Physically, it's a bit of an effort, despite trying different types of case lube. Also, the sizing die leaves marks down nearly all of the case body but not, say 90%.
I feel like I'm doing it wrong...but the rounds I've reloaded chamber and shoot well enough.

Seems typical to me. You really are doing something that would take some effort. This is where the Rockchucker would be a little nicer.
I concur. The marks you see on the brass appear to be typical if my own 308 brass is an indicator (using a Redding Body Die). FWIW, I use Imperial Sizing Wax.

I know that the Rockchucker is heavier duty, but I really don't think that this 1967 Jr. is lightweight. It's all steel/iron and beefy as hell. Not my picture, but you get the idea. I also have an Inline Fab handle.

Your press is plenty strong, but the RC has a compound leverage system like your 550:
Ah, copy. Maybe someday I will upgrade. I've tried Imperial Sizing Wax, Royal CaseLube, and homemade lanolin/pure alcohol case lube.
