What Press do you use???

1st press Lee Challenger. I still use it quite a bit
2nd press Hornady LnL AP Progressive with bullet and case feeders.
3rd press Hornady LnL Single Stage.

When I use Hornady shellholders the dies can go from the Single Stage to the Progressive without any adjustments.
 
I use the RCBS rockchucker for my .338LM, and the 1050 for 30-06, 223, 9mm, and 45, though I go through a lot more 30-06 than the rest combined for whatever reason...
 
For my rifle use, a RCBS Rockchucker for universal decapping then a RCBS A4 Big Max for the sizing and seating.
For my pistol and carbine use a Hornady LNL AP with case and bullet feeders.
Seems to work well for my uses :evil:
 
Herter's # 3 since 1968

Herters, Wow!! thought I was going to be the only one with a Herters still I use. Was my dad's press bought in early 60's. Because of their incredible strength I set it up as a brass forming and swaging press.

Also in use 2 Dillon 650's, 9 powder disp. & tool heads
Dillon 550
My favorite...Lee Classic cast, about a dozen tool heads
Mec 9000 hyd. 12 ga.

Just a note on the Classic cast. Recently I made a 3 die set of brass forming dies to form 38-56 cases from 45-70 cases. The Classic cast press handled the process with ease...kind of puts to bed the notion some have that all Lee stuff is junk.
 
Redding model 25 Turret Press for rifle,Lee Pro 1000 for 9mm and a Lee Loadmaster for .45. Just got a sweet deal on a Hornady LNL progressive so we'll see how it compares to the Lee's when I get home. Mec Sizemaster and an old Mec progressive(can't remember the number but it's no longer made) for shotgun.
 
For most of my rifles I use a Lee Classic. I also have a couple of Lee Loaders in 30-30 and 7.62x54R. I also have a Lee Load All for 12 gauge shells lead and steel.
