I have located two old shotshell presses; well, actually, I was advertising for unused handloading "stuff", and was contacted yesterday about an estate. There are two older presses, and I have no information at all about one of them. Can you fellows help?

One of these is a Beitmeyer(?) press, configured somewhat like the old RCBS Green Machine for handgun reloading. It looks to be in 12 gauge, with all the dies there. Any information would be very much appreciated...

The second one is a Stout Rapid Reloader, made in Hollywood, CA. I found a magazine article from 1960 stating this press was offered new at $350 back then. What can you guys tell me? That sounds like a WHOLE LOT of money!

Thanks in advance.

All I can say if it cost 350 in 1960 it must be one heck of a press
