[QUOTE="DaveB, post: 4940185, member: 5958"] As a jeweler you already know equipment makes a difference. Be positive your two Weatherby mag cases will fit in whatever you buy. Look for a Forster co-axial press. My BIL has owned just one press since the early 1980's and he is a stickler about accuracy. LinK: [url=https://www.forsterproducts.com/product-category/case-sizing-lubricating/co-ax-reloading-press/]https://www.forsterproducts.com/product ... ing-press/[/url] Yes, expensive and a standard RCBS press can do the same, almost.

Personal preferences here. Long. deeper than a normal countertop. Case lube, cleaning lube, cleaning liquids, and sandpaper-like carbon particles will come in regular contact so the surface needs to be tough or easily replaceable and cannot be metal.

Remember-keep smokeless powder, primers, and black powder in separate storage locations. Never have two powder cannisters open on your bench. You will need good lighting.
