Wow rock chucker what a beast!

cured the primer flinger

I like your setup. Especially the primer funnel or dampener that you have fabricated. The only weakness to the Rockchucker that I can see. I see something red in the channel where the primers are supposed to fall. Can you give any details as to what that is?
I've developed a reflex where I cup my left hand in front of the press while I work the handle with my right. One still sneaks through every so often.

@GW Starr, I like that case kicker!

Yeah that is the high tech part that took hours to figure out......not really....just a McDonalds Straw.

For anyone interested, the how-to's for both mods were posted 5 years ago on THR. Links below:

We try not to resurrect zombie threads from 5 years ago

I like that, I'm going to have to make that for my RCll. It really speeds things up.

I wasn't clever/skillful enough to make my own. I bought my case eject system from Inline Fabrication

Thank you

I'd better look at my bench before I buy this, Chucker is mounted on the left, front corner which means I need the plate and bins also, and they will be sticking out in front of something else, I'm sure. I'll check their web site to see what else I have to buy to make it work. May not be worth it in my case. Dang!

I bought a Rock chucker tonight at Walmart. Spur of the moment thing. I was browsing sporting goods. And picked it up off the shelf. When i felt the weight i had to buy it. Boy am i impressed with the quality. It's hefty compared to my other press's.

If you think a RC is a big, hefty press, you should check out the RCBS "Big Max", I have one of those too.

Probably the biggest reason is.... my version is for the old Rock Chucker II. If you have a supremo you need the supremo version I.Fab. makes. Another reason 5 year old threads stay in the archives.....but there's plenty of us who still use the R.C. II. I mean they last two lifetimes! Three if you live in dry New Mexico or Arizona.

The old thread IS accessible in the archives and the search engine is awesome....and that's good enough.

I’m mounted left bench also

There are several on e-bay for 129.00 free shipping

Mine is the old RCll also. I think it was the best one they made for longevity. The older Supremes were pretty good to, I don't know what the new ones that are cast in China are like.

I'll check on this today. I know I can get an accrobin on there right beside it and there is enough room for one, like Lee sells

That's all I need for collecting ejected brass and it will fit this area without sticking out.

I bought a RCBS JR3 used at a gun show for ~$30 with a RCBS hand primer and they have never let me down. The JR3 is a tank and I just put a roller handle on it from https://inlinefabrication.com/colle...e-for-the-rockchucker-supreme-reloading-press. They have one for the Rockchucker, it makes for one sweet press.
