Forster Press FOUND

Post by Promapper »

In a quest to upgrade some of my gear I decided to go with the Forster press. Since I am a "gotta have it right f - - - - - now" kind of guy I checked the web stites of the usual suppliers as recommended by Forster. Cabelas, Graf, Midway, Natches etc. No one had any in stock so I figured I would just buy one from Forster even though it may be a few bucks more. FORSTER's deliver is like 6 weeks behind! Even to their dealers. YIKES.

So then I started calling the stores and lo and behold I was told the Fort Worth Cabela's Store has 4 in stock. Apparently store stock is not reflected on the web stores. A quick call to Cabela's and it will be here in two days.

Just thought I would pass this on as several of the forums indicated no one could find these and it appeared several folks were looking.

HTH

You'll love the Co-Ax.

I bought mine a little of a year ago and it happens to be my first Reloading Press. It's a bit slow but what do you expect from a single-stage press. Accuracy and consistency is only as good as the materials you are using so sort the brass and bullets if you want to measure your rounds and compare deviation between rounds.

Seems most Forster equipment owners are generally impressed with their tools

Thanks Bazz
I'd probably get a size 10 high heel in my posterior if I bought one now, but will keep that in mind for when my current press fails.
BRT is also the only Oz supplier I could find for Berger bullets
