What Press do you use???

I mostly use the All American Lyman turret...Got it from my Dad who got it from my Granddad...I remember sitting on the old timers knee when I was a young snot picker when he and my father were loading up 222 rem mag rounds for jack rabbit and fox out at the farm...I also use a RCBS Rockchucker for more push when full length sizing larger rounds but would much rather use the handy smooth All American Lyman for everything else...Lots of push but you can still feel what you are doing.
 
Starting early Jan this year a Dillon 650 for 9mm, soon to add 40 once I decide on new limited division gun, will keep 650 on small primers.

Large primers staying on Hornady LNL AP that I've had almost 5 years. Mostly 45 now, some 44 mag or special.

Small quantities on my first press, RCBS JR 2 single stage that I bought used on Craigslist. Very used - I refurbished it. Learned to reload on it, still use it for working up new loads. Also for 41 mag that I don't shoot enough of to justify shell plate on LNL nor time to setup.

Lee breech lock Challenger, Rock Chucker II, and I can't believe I'm the first one to post it, but a Lee (breech lock) hand press! Dam I love that thing! Just so handy, I can do pretty much anything watching TV or at the kitchen table or even take it with me on the road!
