I've owned one of the older RL1050's for quite a few years. I just don't shoot pistols that much anymore so was thinking of selling it. I don't think I've used it in the last 8 years, it just sits on the reloading bench. Anyone got an idea what this thing is worth? It's not a Super 1050 but the older model.

I have lots of extras for it but thought I'd see what it's worth. Depending on what it's worth I'll either sell it or keep it. But would rather see it go to someone that will use it more than I do.
 
Sorry but this is not the appropriate place for a selling ad.

There's a buy/sell section for this.
Perhaps one of the mods can move this thread.
 
He is not selling it, just asking a question. He is leaning towards keeping it anyway.

On THR you can't list something forsale without a price and what that number should be was the subject of his post.
 
Since the 1050 doesn't have the "lifetime guarantee" of the consumer models, how about half of the current Blue Press price.

What caliber is it set up for?
 
Older RL1050's were reported to be more in demand by HANDGUN
shooters as the machines stroke is SHORTER.

The RL 1050 won't do larger rifle calibers.
 
GENERALLY......a press in good working order set up ready to load one caliber sells for $1,000 -1200.

However, depending upon the extras, could either increase the price or help you sell it faster.

If the press needs work, obviously it would sell for less.

Good Luck
 
lifetime guarantee isn't something to even give a second thought with the 1050, kind of like with Star presses

yeah I'd take a RL1050 over my Super 1050
 
Agreed. I don't have a 1050 but a friend does, and he cranks out the ammo by the truckload. He's never had a serious problem that I know of in something like 6 years of operation. I'd suggest that it would go for something close to the cost of a new one, maybe 80%, plus any extras that go with it.
