RCBS press is a Rock Chucker

 

[Brady lynn]

Excellent. Have 2 of those. Any idea on the blue one or the rcbs with the orange measuring device on top?

 

[John Beauchamp]

2nd picture is RCBS stand with O-haus or Lyman powder measure. Maybe $15-$25 but it's missing the powder bottle.

I am not sure what the first picture is but the top end of that machine looks like the top end from a MEC shotshell reloader. I have never seen a MEC brand machine that looked like that though. It makes me wonder if that is possibly a MEC top end modified to fit on another machine. As a longtime MEC owner I would be very interested in what that machine is.

 

[Brady lynn]

I will post other picture of it. It has some AA battery and a small light bulb on it to I thought was weird to have

Based on color and style, it looks like an old Pacific DL press, but does look like a MEC top end on there. Strange. I wonder what the stamping say on the base of that blue press.

I think the last picture is the body for an arbor press, it is missing the ram,spur gear and handle.

I think that’s a Lyman 55 powder measure on a RCBS stand. It is missing the powder bottle.

Think granite1 is right on. Good powder measure.

 

[Rustytigwire]

My shootin bud has that measure. Likes it, me too. Clunker in front instead of klunk the handle. That green stand looks robust enough too.

I believe the press in the first picture is an old Ponsness Warren from back in the 1960's.

What is on the base, I wasn't able to read it from the photo ?

Green press is - as mentioned already - a RCBS Rock Chucker, the successor of the RCBS A-2 press. Difference to the A-2 was that the Rock Chucker was made from cast Iron vs. cast steel. The successor of the Rock Chucker was the Rock Chucker 2 which came with the removable bushings (to accept larger shotshell dies) and a ball handle vs. the bicycle grip as well as a epoxy finish vs. the green paint...

The picture in the middle is the RCBS powder measure stand with what looks like an incomplete Lyman powder measure.

Blue press picture 1 look’s like a Mec. But before Hornady there press were blue and were called Pacific. Kinda resembles a 266 Hornady in it early stage

 

[JMayo]

The first one is for shotgun isn't it ?

To sell primers and powder is a pita. FtoF only or garbage

I also thought it looked similar to some Pacific presses I had seen over the years but I have not seen that many.

I think you’re correct in saying it’s an old Pacific press.
It is not a mec press. I just sold a 1963 vintage Mec super 250
Mec is Red, they’ve never been blue during my life time.

 

[Dusty Stevens]

Pacific is the only one that ive ever known to be blue like that

Looks like that RC has the straight handle, epoxy paint but has the removable die bushing. You can see in the pic from underneath the bigger threads

 

[The German]

Yes, but it has "- RC -" cast into the frame, all RC 2 models had "RC II" as far as I know. So, if it has removable bushing, it was probably modified afterwards (hard to say without a picture from the top showing the details). Or it is an in-between model, but I think that is a more recent trend between humans
