Hand Press
Quick question, with regards to hand presses , who makes them except Lee, Lyman 310 or the old defunct Wamadet?
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Re: Hand Press
Stick to the Lyman 310 fluffy.
They have them weird metallic black powder caliber cartridge die sets for them Marlin antique jobs ya like....
Ya can sit around the campfire in ya communal backyard, doing a reet proppa Blazin Saddles themed reloading session.

Re: Hand Press
I have a fondness for reloading on hand presses, the Lyman 310 was favourite amongst the old deer stalkers I had the privilege to be with and learn from in my youth.
I have most of the hand presses listed but my all time favourite has to be the Huntington Compac.

Re: Hand Press
For what its worth I was in Fultons on Tuesday and they have a second hand Wadamet for sale. Can't remember the price.
Re: Hand Press
Was it the hand press, Colin?
Jon, what's the going as you know the price of anything old and unfashionable. Like your disco shirts...
Funny Blazing Saddles post..... Unusual for you....

Sim it was the lever type I think mounted on a board. Saw it while waiting to be served!! I think the price might have been £60
Re: Hand Press
Thanks Colin. No, that's not the one I'm after. I'm looking for the one that's not mounted. Like nut crackers...

It started off as a "what alternatives are out there" thread, which I suppose has developed....
