What arbor press is better? 21st or Sinclair.

Thanks for all the replies guy's,, I was whining about tapping the case in the neck die and especially tapping the friggin primer out. federal 205's pop out easy but I've switched to the Wolf magnums and they seem to bee a tighter fit. The issue is a dumb one indeed,, I've been using a rubber mallet LOL I couldn't man up for a brass tunker.

The seater sticking is mainly a vaccum issue like one of you mentioned,, I just pull the top back a little and the round slides out.

I have been seating by hand pressure, I don't use a lot of tension,, maybe .001 possibly less.

I went with the Sinclair mainly because I wanted the special base that you use with the neck die that you can flip the neck die 180 to deprime and push out the case after you neck size it. Sinclair had that as well so I figured with the press on sale and the base I would save on shipping by getting both item's at once.

My neck's come out at .270 and I use the .268 or later on .267 bushing. in the Wilson die. Last season I used a Redding body die every firing,, it is a close match to my chamber, I get measurements -.001 headspace, shoulder dia. and web dia.
