I've seen an ad, but no information. Was not on the RCBS web site last check. Anyone have any information?

I had to call RCBS today so asked about their new press. First it will start shipping FEB 1. IT will have five stations and will be a manual indexing press.
I'm bummed I was hoping for an auto indexing press.
Just thought you all like to know.

Scratch,

Thanks.

Did they mention price, callibers, sources for more information, when it will be listed on the web page?

Saw the new press at the SHOT Show. You're bascially getting a Dillon, without many years of trial and error to get the bugs out. It is still a nice piece though. Also looked at the Dillon 650. I would definitely choose that press. Not sure how well RCBS's warranty would work. We all know about Dillon's great warranty.

EVERY time I have called RCBS with a problem they have mailed the replacement parts to me for free. I not a big RCBS fan just because I seem to have problems with breaking decapping pins (alot) and other parts that sould not bend or break. I keep buying their products though because they have good service when I need it. BTW I use a Hornady press and they send out parts when I need them too.
I'm concidering buying a new progressive, one that is easier to change calibers. I'll definately look at this new press but "I" really like auto indexing, less chance of me screwing up!
I just thought I'd had to plug RCBS service. Everyone always talks about the "gods" at Dillion but there are others that treat people good too.
