Press For 6ppc Reloading- Suggestions

[3dram8]

I'm new to the 6ppc and reloading, I've read tons of threads on this and am now a bit confused as to the best/most appropriate press for reloading 6ppc cases. I don't mind spending a little more to get the "right" press the first time, but don't want to spend more than I need to either. I was leaning towards a Forster co-ax, but read some things that made me wonder if I really needed it. I was initially thinking that the priming feature on the Forster would be good enough that I would not need a separate primer tool and that would make up for some of the extra expense of the press.....any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I'm also fairly new to 6 PPC reloading. I started with a Frankfort o-ax press, but didn't like that at all! I just started using a single stage Harrell's Precision Press that seems to be "tailor-made" for the 6PPC. I like it so well, that I want to upgrade to the turret version. I'm going to list the single stage press on GB. If you'd like pics of the press, I can supply some. I can't sell on the forum to you but will send you a link to the GunBroker auction if you'd like it.

Do you like to use one of the "Pure Magic" designs?

Don’t know what that is . There is no “ pure magic” in anything . Just go with the flow.

"Pure Magic" is the name of a reamer drawing Tony Boyer ordered up from PT&G.

Its like the robinette 30br reamer. The design has been lost to time. He used dwight scott’s design for many years. Its best to stick with the design a mainstream winning gunsmith uses and they can supply you with the dies that work. The designs get tweaked all the time on the fly as brass and bullets change. A ppc reamer probably isnt the best investment unless youll be chambering your own barrels
