I have acquired an old Texan "H" press, with a manual rotary head. I gather Texan went out of business in the '70s, but this press looks like it's got another couple of centuries of reloading life in it. It weighs a ton and is built like the proverbial...
I plan on using it for reloading rifle, as I should be able to keep the dies for two, or even three, calibres set up.
The problem is that the clip to hold the shell holder is missing, and I can't just write Texan for a replacement.
I'm looking for a source for a replacement as the clips don't show up at any Canadian vendor during an online search, and paying US$5 shipping for a 98-cent part seems a little "spendy".
Feedback from anyone who has used this type of press before also welcomed.
Thanks.
