I presently reload for 3 pistol calibers using a Dillon SDB. It's great for what it does. However.
For my magnum reloads, I've become convinced that using a Factory Crimp Die may help me get lower SDs and greater velocities for the same powder charge. Can't do it with the proprietary dies of the SDB.
Also, I think my next caliber will be 45-70. So what I need is an inexpensive but durable single stage press that will allow me to finish my magnum pistol charges using a factory crimp die, and which is big and sturdy enough to be able to load 45-70 (probably for a Marlin).
So what are my best options? Thanks for your opinions and your help--
