seriously, never heard of a Co-Ax press.

Been using a rockchucker since ~1987 or so. (when I was 14)


That's no problem. You keep using your Rockchucker. It's a fine press. Most are.

Reloaders are like women in a lot of ways. Women are always shopping for new shoes and accessories. Reloaders are always looking for new presses and accessories.

RickF, I have the same bicycle type handle. After researching the Co Ax and examining my needs I decided to keep what I have. I am going to change the handle out to one of these:

That site has some interesting stuff. L.E.D. press lights for illumination? Hmm.

Same here. I load my .416 Rigby's on the RC, or any other use that requires a little more leverage.

An old Lee Challenger still works, but with amended RCBS dies. Very straight loads.

Have a Hornady 007 that has served me faithfully for years. Has loaded thousands of rounds and seems as tight as it was when new.

Have used a Rockchucker and Super Rockchucker for same time. Last Fall, i bought a Lee Challenger which is now dedicated to primer removal via a dedicated decapping die. Saves a bit of time.

I bought my Rock Chucker new in 1977. Over the last 10-15 years I have thought often of getting a Co-Ax or a T-7 or both. If I were starting over, I'd probably get a Co-Ax. But since I put a Hornady Lock-N-Load bushing in the Rock Chucker, it has really been a joy to use.

However, I might have to spring for one of those fancy roller handles that somebody posted a link to.

If the T7 used 1-1/4 x 7/8 die bushings like the Rock Chucker so I could add Lock-N-Load bushings, I would probably get one tomorrow.
