Wow, that is a real shame. All in the name of profit. I don't see the retail pricing dropping even with the off shore production.
I have been using the new Lee breech lock press and can highly recommend it. WAY stronger then the last Challenger press. The ram is a BR fit in the press body - it does need a break in.
Before and after show ZERO change in runout.
Strong, more compact, works great, quick change die feature which I really like, dirt cheap.
Might want to give it a try
