RCBS progressive presses are some of the best kept secrets in the industry, love my pro 2000 and the APS strip system. Not to mention their customer service is out of this world. To give you an idea, I picked up a used 5-10 scale used, and it was missing a part or two. I wrote them asking if the parts were still available for purchase, knowing the scale is no longer in production for quite some time. Their reply : "Order is in the mail. Merry Christmas"
I have a question I'm going to invest in one press and it's between the pro 2000 and 550b or the pro chucker 5 or 7 . I will be loading pistol and rifle. I really just want the best press for my money with the best options. I'm really leaning towards the pro chucker 7. What would you suggest
+Matt T Instead of a case feeder, they need a bullet feeder. .22 cal bullets are a pain to hold onto with my paws. loading cases isn't that big of a deal. Maybe give the end user a choice?
+malcolm smitherman There already are bulletfeederkits from Rcbs available on the market that will fit this press. In my opinion you shouldn´t have to put neither the bullet or case in manually on a progressive press. Therefore I would go with the Dillon 650 before this one, had it been a casefeeder available I would go with this one.
One hella lot cheaper than a Dillon 1050 for 7 station progressive too! I just wish I could speak to Gavin for 2 minutes about these 2 brands for loading rifle ammo.
are the station plates and shellplates interchangeable between the RC5 and RC7 frames? looks like a simple upgrade to me. no need to buy a whole complete machine.
Just got this and am having trouble with the primer lining up with the shell plate. It's a few mill out which means the primer is seated off centre, sideways, or even upside down. Anyone out there who knows how to back wind the plate about 1/8inch would be greatly appreciated.
The only cast iron progressive I've had is the RCBS Pro-2000. I don't have a problem with aluminum for progressive, but I do prefer cast iron typically! :)
The biggest differences are: 7 stations on the Pro-Chucker (super flexible), -vs- lock-n-load bushing system on the Lock-N-Load AP - enhanced die alignment and easy powder measure dump, etc. Check prices on both and see what you think. Both have incentives/rebates!
tout cela est très intéressant mais s'il vous plait en Français !!!!!!!. Je ne dois pas être le premier a faire la remarque , c'est ce qui freine a l'achat . c'est dommage. Delphdom.

Interesting video and looking forward to part two! Rcbs should definitely have a case feeder available for their new presses though.

+Matt T I couldn't agree more.If given the choice between the two, say as an optional package I would choose the bullet feeder.
why you flip us off bro at 7:38?

Great press for somebody but not for me. Returned it after priming system repeatedly broke. I got the dillon xl650
you'd think they can do something about the price ?

Can you do a clip on setting up the QC Powder measure on the die plate?
Yes I've been waiting for this video for a while would you recommend a pro chucker 7 for a first progressive press I have a single stage and turret
Will the RCBS 5 and 7 fit the Springfield 30-06?
Good
I have an issue with an aluminum press...your opinion?
The only cast iron progressive I've had is the RCBS Pro-2000. I don't have a problem with aluminum for progressive, but I do prefer cast iron typically! :)
How do you like this press compared to the Hornady LNL AP? Thanks for the response

I already have the lock-n-load. Thanks for the response.
Thank you
How much money do you have invested in reloading
single stage for me 50bmg
+Liemciemdk89 Yeah- you won't be loading 50 BMG on this press!
