Lyman all American press

I just dug out my all American press. I have it set up with the J holder shell adapter. I haven't used the press in years. I was surprised at how accurate my loaded rounds where. I loaded 20 rounds in 204 and 6br using foster bench rest dies. It was no problem hold round out under .002 in loaded rounds as well as neck run out on sized brass. The rounds were as straight as my co ax produced

Wonder where the idea came from that you had to have a Co-Ax in order to produce nice straight finished rounds?

Indeed. A press is a press so long as it's straight. If anything, a co-ax is just adds complexity and more room for misalignment.
