How can we make the excellent Forster Co-Ax loading press even better? It’s no secret that I, along with many other accuracy-minded handloaders, greatly appreciate this press.

I absolutely LOVE my Forster Co-Ax single-stage reloading press. It’s got precision, efficiency, and made-in-USA quality. It even looks nice (See the Forster Co-Ax highlight in my 14- press shootout HERE). The one thing that has frustrated me has been the small-to-large shellholder changeover process and vice-versa. It’s not a big deal, but if I […]
