Where to find rcbs pro 2000 progressive press in Canada?
- Thread starter CZ85Combat
- Start date
I was going to check with them see if they can order one. But I want to wait a bit to give them time to settle in the new shop.

I'm from Kingston as well...Brownell's and the Kinek pickup site on Wellesley Island are your friends as well! I know you mentioned not wanting to drive to the U.S. to pick up, but sometimes it's worth it.
That said, SFRC is awesome and I would definitely ask them to bring it in first. I saw an AmmoPlant up there recently from Hornady.

Thanks,
Yeah, saw that ammoplant... and the 1500$ price tag lol. It is in the new store.
I was drooling over it. I might consider it if they have another 15% sale
I do have a Kinek account too. plenty of options

Remember the RCBS $50 rebate expires December 31 - in case you haven't used it yet (1 per household) - so you may want a receipt dated before then...

This thread interest's me. Most of the progressive press threads revolve around the Dillon & Hornady machines.
I run Dillon progressives, 550 & 650 and was interested in the difference between the RCBS and the one's I have.
I googled a U-tube video on the RCBS and have a question about the priming strips they require...are they readily available with different brands of primers or is there a machine to load whatever brand you prefer into the strips. If not, I can see a definite advantage to the Dillons in that I can buy bulk primers at any outlet and load up the tubes as I choose with them.
The second benefit to the Dillons that I could easily see in the video is that the shell plate rotates counter clockwise on the RCBS... This loads the powder and rotates the case at the back of the press to the next station. You would need an extremely long goose type neck to comfortably inspect each powder charge like most re-loaders want to do.
