This version of the C&H has a die-cast (probably tougher aircraft grade) aluminum base and the die holder and shell holder carrier are made of the same stuff. The handle, power transfer bar, the guide struts and the linkage are all solid steel. Be sure to keep everything that has a joint and moves.
Well oiled/greased. I use 3-in-one-oil and white lithium grease. The press is strong and handles 4 dies of any caliber, but I would not recommend it for swaging or case reforming. No sense in pushing things to the limit. Its also pretty fast, especially with pistol calibers(short) as most are easy to shuttle/shuffle around thru the stations. Manufacturer claims 200 per hour but I have never gotten that much.
Someone gave me a CH Auto-Champion Progressive Press. Why not set it up for the C H press. It's geared mainly towards pistol reloading. Jul 03, 2008 Anyone using the CH4D Heavyweight press for reloading? I suppose that someone with good manual dexterity could.

I suppose that someone with good manual dexterity could, with practice, do it. It will handle rifle calibers well including the tall ones. Press requires a shell holder for each station in a four die set, or three depending on the caliber, but the total purchase is only painful one time in the beginning. I have had one of these for 12 years and its going strong. I also have 2 of its predecessors.the 3 station versions and an original one station for over 30+ years and they have always functioned well and are still working fine.
They're compact and although the priming systems have evolved, nothing much else really changed in the design. Once you get the case shuffling sequence down pat, theres no more confusion or mix up especially with the 4 station and your loading speeds up; each pull of the handle produces a loaded round. Well, I had to see for myself. The press arrived earlier today. Nearly no assembly, screw in the handle, put on the handle retaining nut and install a shell holder. First, this thing is heavy.
At least 30+ pounds and that is the frame and the toggle, which are cast steel with a beautiful pebbled black finish. The frame is set up like a typical O-frame design. Window is 3.75 inches from the top of my shell holder to the bottom of the frame.
Top of frame has a choice of bushing, my choice was a 7/8-14. A full stroke only brings the handle down to a point perpendicular to the frame. The ram is 1. Fotorwinsetup V1.3.0. 185 inches in diameter and feels like a bank vault door opening and closing.
Truly, a beast of a press. No, this is not an infomercial and I am in no way associated with CH Tool, I paid full price plus shipping. Actually the price was reasonable based on what RCBS A2s are fetching on E-Bay. In fact, I may not keep this since there is a Corbin CSP-1 on the way.
