Any opinions on this set up? http://www.ch4d.com/ , any users of this press? I'm just now considering reloading as an extension of my shooting hobby and exploring my options. I shoot casually and in an informal IDPA league at my gun club. Not a hugh number of rounds now but you never know where things lead. I really don't want a single stage but don't want to worry about all that goes on using a progressive. I shoot mostly 9mm and that is most likely the only caliber I will reload. I like the idea of this setup as I worry about the powder drop moving back and forth with a turret press.
Thanks, Gregg |

I had one of these and loved it. Almost as fast as a rotary progresive. Very strong and well built. I'm trying to find an other one.

Do you have to manually move the case from station to station when using this press?

from what I can find, yes the case movement is manual.

I think it might be hard to get 200 rds. per hour if you have to move the cases through each station manually. Just a thought though... I don't know anything about this press.
I do have a Lee Classic Turret Press with auto index (not manual) and it will do about 200 rds. per hour if I'm moving quickly. Maybe I'm just too slow |
