Just FYI for folks contemplating yet another choice in the press trade-off space.
Frankford Arsenal's upcoming 10 station progressive is being sent to vloggers for reviews and testing.
They say it will be released in summer.

I'm still waiting for the release of the VelociRadar.

With all the political upheaval in Europe, the lingering effects of the supply chain issues, and Covid... I don't expect any of these companies to hold to schedules where they announced new product release dates in the last two years.
Dates on things said at trade shows versus actual release dates were always hit and miss with things like this, but the last few years your fudge factor has to be much longer.

I just checked Midway, everything Frankford 10X is on backorder. Probably a no for me I already have 4 progressive presses...and it is very limited in caliber choices and cartridge length to only 308, as max length. So 30-06 lengths or longer will not fit .
Plus I'm already set up for all the cartridges I shoot. Time will tell, as it becomes available and reviews come in...

no chance I will ever do run and gun anymore and need a progressive, otherwise one of these would be on the top of my wishlist

Kind of waiting to see what people find haywire with the two new FA presses, as far as I know, they haven't fixed issues on the M press yet. THey have good ideas, just don't execute them all that well.

I have more than enough presses to never need another one. But it's interesting. I don't like to be the first buyer of new products hoping the price doesn't raise but I will wait a few months and see what the reviews are from 200-300 users vs the 50 beta testers
