Or come to Amarillo and we will use either my Hollywood presses or my RCBS A-2 presses

OR one of your friends may have an old RCBS Rock Chucker press and the bushing at the top can be unscrewed to use these dies

Hello Der Ami,

I actually had my son-in-law (a master machinist) modify my little RCBS "O" press once before. He opened up the 7/8" thread, to 1" when I got the big 577-500 dies. It only took him 15 minutes. He will do the same this time, opening it to 1-1/4" and then also making a 1" bushing to allow the 1" dies to be used also. This press is dedicated to my "Big" dies.

For regular loading, I actually have 7 other presses; 2 Bonanzas, a Dillion, a Hornady, 2 Corbins, and a no-name monster press dedicated to swaging.

As per skeetix I too use the big old Hollywood presses for the big stuff. Recoil of your 20/577 should be mildly stimulating in the 12lb rifle.

You can be nice to your son-in-law and get this

Hello skeettx,

My son-in-law will knock one of those out in less than 10 minutes on the CNC. That, along with the press re-tap, will cost me taking him out for lunch.

Awesome. keep him in the family
