Recommend a small reloading press - K&M, Harrells, etc

[JAM-MAN]

I'm limited in space for reloading, and finding the Forster Co-Ax, albeit a terrific press, takes up a lot of space on my bench. I need to resize and seat bullets. Will have to go to hand priming if I sell the Co-Ax. Any recommendations for a smaller press? The Harrells Combo press looks promising, although no way to measure pressure when seating bullets that I can see.

Why not an RCBS Partner - small, light & takes all the dies.

I have a Harrell's combo press that is one of my favorites.

If your doing regular hunting rounds which your probably doing, an RCBS Partner or JS will do the trick.

Keep the co-ax build a portable stand, you can move off and on the reloading bench, use the kitchen counter, take it to the range:

Excellent idea, thanks. Might keep me from knocking off the primer jar, too.

I am using a RCBS Summit Press Loading 223,45,38SPL and 9MM Working Good, changed out the Die holder nut to Hornady LNL fittings saves time changing Dies

if looking for a Decent low cost Bench check out the Harbor Freight work bench usually on sale for $129.00. Wood bench is Pretty Decent ,strong and seems solid! HARDWARE is for shit .replaced all the screws with deck screws 1 1/4". the drawer glides were losing ball bearings while i was putting it together! got new full extension slides from lowes had to adjust drawer size by 3/8's inch to fit. just trim 3/16's of each front mounting point on the table saw and cut the back to match
