The action is rough as a cob. Might be worth it if you're a cheap scape. There are better option.

this is sad, but it is also true

I've used the BE arbor press for about 2 years. Works just fine. I see no need to pay over $100. It's just a press! I use Wilson dies with it and in the loading process...The arbor press is the least of my worries.

A little lube goes a long way towards smoothing them up but you're right, there are better options.

I ordered one to give it a whirl for my range reloading kit. If after a little lube it still ends up being a dog I can probably get my money back out of it later on.

Exactly what I was talking about! I went ahead and ordered another to keep as a spare, or whatever.

Wheres all the bottle cappers and the other frugal methods that come out everytime an arbor press post comes up? You can use a hammer or even your hands to seat a bullet in a wilson die

 

[JFrank]

Or a drill press I suppose

With my Wilson Dies I used a little 2x2 block of wood and my hand for a year before I got my K&M arbor press. You can really feel the amount of pressure it takes to seat a bullet on all the loads and know instantly if something is wrong. No pressure pack or anything needed to tell. Just from the lever resistance. It's great.

I remember the one time a guy was trying to identify an old arbor press...
