Charged and Seated some 223. Was very happy with my first ladder (Shot this AM) Fiddling with the seating depth a bit now, but not sure I can actually shoot the difference. :)
IMO, it's complete overkill for pistol, but it has through the ram spent primer handling and will handle just about anything the OP won't be throwing at it. $170 https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1013008991?pid=317831
I have a RCBS Supreme, but that doesn't mean I don't want a smaller press when...
Question for the OP:
Beside 357 Mag and 44 Mag, what other calibers would you be considering?
IMHO, if just for ~straight~ wall pistol calibers, the Partner would be more than adequate, plus being a nice upgrade from the Lee Classic. :thumbup:
I've used several Hornady shell holders in my RockChucker Supreme press with no issues.
(Some) Hornady shell holders don't work with my RCBS Hand Priming tool.
Been peelin' and re-stickin' powder labels for quite a while. I have some 8# labels cut to fit 1#, etc. I use clear packing tape when the original adhesive gets weak.

Charged and seated (100) 223 - 69 gr SMK with the last of my 8208XBR :(
Charged and seated (100) 223 - 69 gr SMK with almost the last of my RL-15. (Nothing wrong with it, but I have plenty of alternatives on hand)
Installed a new extractor, cartridge holder, and...
Which brings up a good point: Needed capacity.
I've collected enough brass that I tumble multiple batch's at a setting. (typically 2-5k cases total) I'd need a ~couple-3~ brass dryers just to keep up.
I could let 'em all air dry, but time/space required would be a bit more. No basements here...
I believe I had N150 in my cart but swapped it for N550 at the last minute. N160 looked good too, but can't say it was in stock,,,
Look at their free online data...
Absolutely! :thumbup: That's where I researched before I purchased the 550
So why did I go w/550 over 150? No particular...
I have H4350 but it's price keeps climbing,,,
What about V.V. powder for the 6.5CM? (Usage will be accuracy/bench work w/140 gr projectiles.)
I ordered a pound of N550.
What V.V. powder are you using in 6.5CM? Any love out there for the N1xx single base series?
