I have a Rock Chucker and an old Herter's Turret press. I usually load CF and use the turret to leave seating dies in all ready for my favorite load. I don't shoot much anymore and set them up after moving South for a SHTF moment. I use the Lee Autoprime and the RCBS table mount primer. I deprime with Hanks system. I do like the looks of the Lee Hand Press and I think I will obtain one just for fun and to take it to the range and out to my hunting area. Although we have the old Lee table mount economy press set up in the basement....Still nice to have one at the range....May have to think on this....lol.

That Lee hand press is your best buddy believe me .....definately beats lugging a press mounted to a board plus big clamps around . That gets old in a hurry . Just sayin.....

So far I have not paid particular attention to seating force. I figure if I can shove it down the barrel the gun will shove it back out. I have the Scout "tight spot" and size mine to fit real tight in the top 6 inches and then slide right down. I size them all at home on the RCBS. Perhaps when I get a place to play around with it I will go for these clover leaf groups many get. But I am hitting and getting my game so far.
