GunsandGearReview reloading video

His evaluation of equipment is not wrong but there are other brands that are as good or better than his set up eg Forster dies are equal to Redding, the Redding press or the Co-Ax by Forster are also good with the Co-ax being the best. I don't care for the C clamp attachment of his press as it will not be as solid as bolting it to the bench ( you can see the press move in the video). I also disagree with the neck size vs full length sizing , at some point a neck sized case will need full sizing and a properly adjusted die that just bumps the shoulder back will allow as many reloads as a neck sized case and be as accurate as a neck sized case. I don't full size new cases but I do run the necks through the expander to remove any dents from from the neck after I dry lube the inside of the necks. I did not see any glaring errors and if you followed his method you would produce useable cases, I did not watch the follow up on chamfering and loading the case. I think reading a good reloading manual several times would be more useful to a new reloader than most videos I have seen.
 
Another press option which is better then the rock chucker, not sure how it compares to the co-ax precision wise, is the lee classic cast the one of strongest presses. Very good bang for the buck.
