RCBS RockChucker is cast iron.Joed, which one is aluminum?
I was once making the same decision over 30 years ago. Settled on the Rockchucker at twice the price. It's still working which says a lot for it.
When it comes to tools I like steel more then aluminum.
Oh, and operating a newer Rock Chucker feels like driving a stick-shift.
I only see one press worthy of being on a bench. The RCBS is made in the US, including its casting, and will outlast their owners. Price should never be the sole determinant.
'nuff said
Good choice. Both are great presses. Nothing against any of the others, but these will give you great "bang for the buck."Well after hours of reading reviews and comparing, and with yalls experience...I going with both lee classic cast and lee turret. Came down to price. Thanks everyone.
Good choice on the Turret. It's a great press, and in my opinion the best thing short of a progressive. Hope you enjoy them.Well after hours of reading reviews and comparing, and with yalls experience...I going with both lee classic cast and lee turret. Came down to price. Thanks everyone.
Yep.That's the only thing I have against my Rockchucker. With the pin and E Clips that RCBS went to in the linkage, it will be there. It doesn't hurt the functionality of it but the Lee LCC and LCT will not have that. I still have the RC but do almost all of my loading on the LCT.For the pleasure of jiggling the sloppy lever?
