Coax press, yes or no?

[enfieldspares]

I have four presses (Dillon, rcbs, harrel, k & m)

I have issues resizing 275 Rigby brass (7x57) on the conventional presses (I’ve yet to find a shell holder that accommodates 7/57 brass - and have them all but none fit)

I could resolve by buying arbour press dies from Wilson

Or simply get my friend with a Co Ax (Forster) to use my dies and re size

That’s a huge benefit to the Forster with the sliding jaw arrangement

I have a Lee R10 shellholder I would send you for £5.50 including standard postage with a Certificate of Posting. They, Lee, claim this is correct for 7mm Brenneke so I guess would work with correct size (aka RWS or other "continental Europe" made)m 7x57 cases?

I would imagine at least what you bought it for if not more......

A while ago My memory is not what it was I am giving up c/f shooting - I am getting a bit long in the tooth!!

I havent the Redding shell holder but have three other brands purporting to be for 7/57

None fit the RWS brass I have

I find the Lee #3 works with RWS 7x57 brass, why???

I recently upgraded after trying a friends - it’s a joy to use and is very consistent - I used to use Lee press and loaded some fine ammunition but if you can afford one get it you can always sell it for most of its value if you decide it’s not for you.

Just take about $50 off the current price (which is probably well more than you paid for yours), and you'll have no problem selling it. Incredibly consistently made presses. My second one is an old "Bonanza" embossed one (before they were purchased by Forester). It had the original short yoke that doesn't allow for micrometer dies (it's too short). I called up Forester, and ordered the latest (taller) yoke, in hopes it would fit. It fit (literally) like a glove. No slop or play, no tightness. Just fit perfectly. ...On a 50 year old version of this press. That tells you why they are so expensive; they're just very well made and have not strayed from their original dimensions. They carry their value well.
