I too have "all" of both Corbins presses, top quality.. tubing jackets, makes very good hunting bullets, it will take you pretty much all day to make 100 the anealing req'd makes it quite painfull. As a reloading press, not any better than a "reloading" press, unless your doing 20mm cannon. I cannot say much about .243 from 22 casings other that they will not win many, if any matches. to buy good J-4s only cost 11cents+- per (before permits & shipping) also, Corbin sells some jackets that are much better than dirty old 22 casings.

I use the large manual press for swaging and reloading, although I did upgrade(?) to the Rock Crusher now manufactured by CH4D as the top plate for the Corbin press is not available in dies sizes larger than 1 1/4". The CSP2 is a very high quality press. Dave is a great guy and was willing to make a custom top plate for me, however the custom setup and cost of tooling was beyond reason. The CH4D press will take dies to 2 3/4" diameter.
Corbin is quite good to deal with, just be prepared to wait 24 months or longer for your order - not kidding on this. Richard from RCE is much faster in supplying product with equal quality.
The large press is painful for hand gun calibre and the 'free' 224 jackets, however it will handle 50bmg with soft lead and the extended handle.
CH4D is another option for dies and presses, however quality does not match Corbin or RCE and you can wait 24 months+ on custom items as well.
