large presses
who can recommend a press which could reload a cartridge over 115mm (4/5"?)
With a 1,1/4 14 thread?

thanks.

The RCBS Ammo Master will handle the 50BMG. Top of shellholder to bottom of top plate is 6".

I'll have mine up for sale later this week if your interested.


Everyday I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive.

thanks, but I had to take mine back as it had a 1.1/2 thread, not 1 1/4, but that was the 50bmg kit...frustrating.
working on a .408 chey tac project, ovr 18 months in "planning" so far.

Well bud, your in luck.

I have a 7/8x14 and a 1x14 adapter to go with mine.

$125 shipped to your door as long as your in the lower 48. typ. 3 day inspection, holler and send it back if you don't like it.

You'll have to fill me in on that 408 project if you get time.

Thanks.

RCBS Ammo Master, I use one for all my reloading. Big Grin


If you're going to make a hole, make it a big one.

Yep,
AmmoMaster and two different bushings gives you the three different threads needed for everything I have reloaded from .223 to .505 and 50BMG. I even get good concentricity creating the wildcat loads for:

.307 Lapua Chui Long Claw

.337 Lapua Simba Long Fang

.377 Lapua Nyati Big Boss

.427 Lapua Kifaru Long Horn

.457 Lapua Tembo Long Tusk

Whenever I get ready to do the .408 CheyTac and .475 Gibbs and .510 Gibbs, the AmmoMaster will be ready with the correct bushing.

I have an RCBS Ammomaster and have also used LB404's Redding Super Mag. The RCBS is good but the Redding is the Best...................DJ

PC,Are Simplex dies still being made in Australia? They make a unique neck size assembly with a decapper that would be extremely useful to an advanced reloader.

DJP; Would that be the Redding 700 Ultramag? I couldn't find a Super Mag.


Prayer, planning, preperation, perseverence, proper procedure, and positive attitude, positively prevents poor performance.
