Re: Fancy, Shiney, German Reloading Press
That is a nice looking press. Please do a review on it after a couple of months use.
I have been using mostly a RCBS Summit Press this last year and like it a lot, but yesterday I ran into a snag with it when I needed to pull a bullet from a case. Oops Good thing I had my Rock Chucker ready.

Re: Fancy, Shiney, German Reloading Press
I don’t think it is broke, just the bullet puller handle will fowl against the linkage and not tighten. But I could be wrong.Corjack wrote: ↑Mon Feb 25, 2019 4:44 pmThat is about the third one of these I have seen that broke.dchamp wrote: ↑Mon Feb 25, 2019 11:42 am That is a nice looking press.

Re: Fancy, Shiney, German Reloading Press
I came up with a an easy cheap way to pull bullets today, bone mostly out of necessity.
I had a spare drill chuck sitting around, so I just put them in the press, raised it up and I gripped it with a spare drill chuck I had sitting around.
Worked on 6mm and 308 pills and doesn't even mark the bullet, quick, simple and effective.
That would work in that press.

Re: Fancy, Shiney, German Reloading Press
I use the Hornady Cam Lock on my Summit, it works but is still a little fiddly. I use my RCBS kinetic puller sometimes too. But for bullet pulling with a gripper type puller the traditional presses such as the Rockchucker, or this shiny one do a better job.
