I bought my A-2 in 1960 via mail order from Gander Mountain. I'm still using it. It's my go-to press for major resizing tasks.

I have had an A-2 for several years, as well because it is about the only press that will handle most large double rifle cartridges, and is very good for making wildcat cartridges from other brass needing re-forming.

The A2 press was one of the last cam over presses RCBS made. The last one I measured had a cam over of .037". The .037" cam over is the equivalent of lowering the die 1/2 turn (+ .003") after contact with the shell holder.
