The ZERO Reloading Press $1,200.00 U.S

As the quality and precision of reloading equipment has advanced in the last few years (AMP Annealers, AutoTricklers, Giraud Trimmers, IDOD Neck Turners, Primal Rights Priming Tools) we have watched companies overlook the core of the bench – the press. In late 2019 we began R&D on perfecting the precision reloading press – and we are happy to introduce the ZERO. It is the embodiment of our pursuit of ZERO tolerance reloading, with ZERO friction. The turret press also works toward ZERO variance in die setup. It will have ZERO equal on the market.

Milled from all-American billet Aluminum, this press moves with the help of 16 bearings, including a self-lubricating linear sleeve bearing, guiding the precision-ground and nitrided 1.25″ ram with less than .0005″ of diametric tolerance. Each press is milled custom to the specific bearing that will live in the press, ensuring the most precise ram stroke on the market – ZERO doubt about that. The linkage system will also glide seamlessly with bearings and custom hardware which will allow us to assemble the system with near-ZERO slop. The operation of the oversized ram, with the .75″ steel arm and ZERO-friction knob will be unlike anything you’ve ever experienced.

The turret system will be secured using a ZERO-point pull-stud, and the turret will be located using an oversized ball-detent system. Changing the position of the turret from one die to another will require only 1/4 turn of a (supplied) t-handle. When indexing the turret, repeatability variance of the system will be less than .0005″.

The opening in the press will allow for sizing and seating of cases up to 338LM, and will accept standard 7/8″ dies and standard shellholders (we prefer the Redding). Using factory shellholders there will be a small amount of float available to account for uncontrollable 3rd party tolerances. We will also be making and selling shellholders specifically fit to the system later in 2020.

We have designed a decapping/primer-catch system into the body of the press, eliminating goofy surgical hoses and baby food-like jars. A simple slide-out tray (with detent) will make this mundane process smooth, simple, and unobtrusive.

We will ship all presses with a standard bolt-down plate, but will also have available Inline Fabrication plates for the system that will mount seamlessly.

Looks like a good unit, but $1200.00 USD is a fair chunk of change. [$1600.00+ CDN]
For that money, I can buy at least 3 CO-AX units.

Think I would rather buy a new rifle, lol. But it's ideal for someone who has to have
the latest and the greatest. Dave.

100% in agreement with you Dave.
It's still interesting, 419 is a great company that provides some really good reloading gear.
 
All the bearings are nice but i seriously wonder what is better an aluminum C frame or a cast iron O frame (like my rock chucker)

Imo its overpriced.
