Hey guys, finally mounted my co-ax reloading press. I got it used so have no manual. Got a few questions: 1. Can I use it with standard RCBS dies (decapped and sized two 375H&H cases a little while ago, seemed to work fine)? The die is loose in there, but I don't know if that makes it bad necessarily. 2. Do I setup the decapping/sizing die to allow the hangle to "cam over" like with my RCBS single stage? 3. with my seating die, in the standard press I use a nickel to setup the distance from shellholder to bottom of die, how do I do it with this? I think that is it, I want to get some 375 loaded up so I can go test my iron sights. Thanks. Red | ||

Thanks. Now, on the locking die, I have the round knurled one, these are old dies. Will that work or does it have to be smooth? And if it will work, I guess I can just use those type of lock rings off my old dies on my new ones? This press really is only going to be used for 375 and whatever bigger than that I get. Red | |||

The knureled rings you have will work. The idea behind the Co-Ax is to allow the die to shift with the case preventing the die from bending the case. This helps eliminate die caused runout. You can get Forster rings from Midway to replace the ones on your dies or go with Hornady dies or replacement rings. Hornadies rings are cheaper and work as well as the Forster. ------------------------------------ The trouble with the Internet is that it's replacing masturbation as a leisure activity. ~Patrick Murray "Why shouldn`t truth be stranger then fiction?
