I got this press in a few weeks ago and I've used it quite a bit. I've had an old RCBS Jr since the early 70's and the ram is as snug as it ever was but after tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition loaded through it, it was self polished so smoothly that the handle would fall driving the ram up which was not only aggravating but could result in pinched fingers. The handle of the old press sticks out away from the press at an angle so it could fall and was also somewhat in the way when not actively using it. The handle of this press lays back toward the press so it won't fall from it's own weight and it's out of the way. The Amazon photo shows the press leaning forward, not the way it's actually mounted so it's a little misleading. I got a Forster press a couple of years ago and it's also a great press but, without a lot of boring detail, I needed a conventional press for some jobs including some large cased cartridges. This one is well made and well finished. At least at one point, my understanding is that the casting for the press was done in China and the rough casting was machined and finished in the USA. I don't know if the casting is still made in China or not. The press was labeled made in USA. In any case mine is well finished and operates smoothly. It's a big, solid press - honestly probably overkill if you're not loading some fairly large cases. It makes for a long stroke of the handle to raise the ram. Incidentally one gripe I've heard of this press is that the casting is so sorry they have to put in a steel insert to screw the die into. Not so. That black insert is a reducer or adapter for the standard 7/8" X 14 TPI dies. Screw that adapter out and the press will take the 1 1/4" X 12 dies for cartridges based on the 50 BMG cartridge. Much ink has been spilled about the primer seater. While I have other options for seating primers, I have used the seater on this press and I find it works just fine. In fact I like it better than the one on my old RCBS JR. I think I do like the one on the Forster better. And the "horrendous" primer catcher I read about - mine works as it's supposed to 90% of the time or better. I've actually counted the number of times the primers has popped out of the catcher - 5 to 10% of the time. That said my loading is done out in a workshop with a concrete floor so if a spent primer falls on the floor it gets swept up with the sawdust and what ever else may be on the floor. If you want absolute control of your spent primers cause the wife doesn't like spent primers in the carpet, get a Forster - seriously. The Rock Chucker Supreme a good press. I like it. It's big, heavy, solid and will do the job.

La Rock erano anni che ci stavo dietro e penso, come altri miei colleghi ed amici, che per ogni persona che carica in casa sia doveroso averla. La RCBS è una garanzia, e alla fine il costo ne vale la spesa. Precisa e molto solida!!! Tutta un'altra cosa dalle altre più economiche. Aspettate magari un po' prima di acquistare altre cose economiche, ma prendete una RCBS e ne sarete soddisfatti per tutta la vita!!! Ottimo prodotto!!
