I've had one for a couple years and really like it. you can't prime cases on it but I always used a hand primer tool

I’ve one. As Grumpy said....no big deal if you hand prime.
Yup.

I have had one for 4 years now . (I sold the Forester.)
Great press, throws some low run out rounds.

I had heard they came assembled really loose or things loosened up as you used them. I think many just used a little loctite or something to resolve the issue. Are they still coming like this or has RCBS fixed this?

I have used one for a few years... It's a good press for straight wall cases and/or small bottlenecks like 22H, 223, 6PPC, etc. When you try to FLR larger cases, like 308, you run into excessive resizing efforts compared to a Rockchucker or a Forster, no matter the lube used. If you don't keep the handle tight in the press, the threads will break off. This is one of the main complaints about the Summit. It's a well built press and keeping the play in tolerances is easy. It does load straight ammunition.

How about the new RCBS Rebel press that's coming out?
