Well, here we go. I've been reloading since 1961. Ive used various model presses (NOT all),from Lyman, R.C.B.S., C.H.,& Lee. !st, the issue of strength. ie,weight is a mute point unless your swaging bullets w/it. Even at that all of the popular models offered today are strong enough for even Wildcat case resizing. The exceptions are obvious and are advertised as "handy-dandy, portable, tuck anywhere, pistol ctg. specific etc." Of course we must allow for our personal need idiosincreses(?sp?).I've never had enough room in my reloading center. After all these years of moving and shifting benches & shelves I've finally managed to make room for two permanently mounted presses. They are a Lee Loadmaster to help me keep up w/my Action Pistol recreation,(dedicated to .45ACP) and a Lee turret, the old 3 hole mod. I load for about 17 or 18 ctgs. including 3 wildcats. By having a turret for each set of dies I can switch between ctgs. w/o needing to readjust the dies each time. I have some other presses set on heavy plywood mounting plates, all cut from a template, that can be quickly mounted should I need another station but that is rare. The Loadmaster is only3 yrs old and I did have a problem that I solved myself. (save this for another time).I"m very happy w/its speed and consistancy. The turret I've had for at least 12 yrs. NO problems. I'll be happy to address specific questions. Pepe Ray
