[QUOTE="Olevern, post: 5312171, member: 22079"] I have a number of presses in my reloading room, never saw the need for progressive, load mostly for accuracy and prefer single station press...I currently own 2 Rock chuckers, a Forster Co Ax, a Redding T-7 and a Redding 700 Ultramag. Out of them all, the Ultramag is my favorite and stands head and shoulders above the others. Rockchuckers are great presses for the money but you will curse the primer catch situation which catches maybe 70 percent of the spent primers and dumps the rest, along with all the dirt and debris from them, all over your bench. Redding 700 Ultramag drops the spent primers down the middle of the ram and into a collection tube, which you can cap with the included cap and periodically empty out, or simply, as I do, leave the bottom cap off and drape the flexible tube over the edge of a small trash container for disposal. Granted, the Ultramag is probably two times the price of the rockchucker, but I believe overall a more quality build and, a better choice, if for no other reason than the spent primer handling on the Rockchucker will haunt you for as long as you own the press. Jus' my 2 cents worth. [/QUOTE]
