I think the ad actually implies "version 2" like version 2.0, 3.0, etc. (I added the "..." to show emphasis)

"The AmmoMaster® 2 ... single stage press has been improved with the installation of the longer support columns and larger toggle block found on the RCBS® AmmoMaster .50 BMG press."​

Ammomaster-2 is a single stage press, 2nd evolution.

I think they put the hyphen in the wrong spot, or the name just isn't spaced out well. I get Ammomaster 2 - single stage press, but definitely can be taken as Ammomaster - 2 single stage press

It's the Ammomaster 2, the second version. As opposed to the first version, the Ammomaster. It's still a single stage.

It goes up and down....? Kinda like back in the day when they would advertise electronics "duel purpose power switch"... It turns on and off?

Big thanks for clearing my confusion.

What goes up... must come down...
Spinnin' wheel... got to go 'round.

(Sorry... flashbacks.)

The way I read it is you can use standard 7/8 dies or 1 & 1/2 inch dies and that's why they call it two stage!

Ride a painted pony let the spinnin' wheel spin

(got me going..)
