CPS primer press

[Area51]

Simply the best bar none.
How good? Good enough to have two, one for each primer size.

If it's worth buying, it's worth having two set up.

No different to having multiple of the same progressive press each setup differently.

Why 2, you still have to switch shellholders? Money burn...and they aren't all that unless you add a 300 dollar attachment to them imo. If switching shell holders, switching the tube and rod take all of 15 seconds.

My RCBS bench primer works just fine, and it only take a couple minutes to switch between SP to LP and the tubes used. Shell holder switch is easy and needs done on any of this style of primer product. One has worked just great for years, for me anyway.

The CPS works for me, it's a piece of work, no doubt about it...

If you don't want to spend less than one minute changing the priming rod, then two units is good.

What attachment?

I like mine if nothing else for the lever control and 100 primer tube. I can prime 200+ before wanting to stop.

Measuring depth it appears to have the claimed precision and consistency.

When you change the priming rod, does the seating depth not need to be re-calibrated ?

For my two calibers, generally no. When I change priming rods, I do one or two and check the seating depth, "IF" any adjustment is needed, it is probably one or two clicks. Most of the time no adjustment is needed.

Those aren’t $300

No I don’t think so, I got the vibrating one for 80 bucks, there’s another one that spins around and I don’t know what it costs.

I have the same one. They’re better than the collator
