I saw the new Frankford arsenal press in the wild

[Kaldor]

Kaldor stated above…..”18-20 cents a round for 9mm”. That’s $180 to $200 per 1,000

Cheapest I’ve seen it is $279 per 1K. Where are you seeing these smokin deals? I want in.

Dont mind me, Im an idiot! I meant to say 28 cents a round.

Back in the salad days we were 20ish or 10-11 dollars a box.

I just saw that Midsouth has this press on sale for $1000.

Not currently in stock but backorder ok. I honestly have no interest in buying one, but thought I would let anyone interested know.

We just bought 2000 rounds of 9mm 115gr Blazer from Farm and Fleet here in WI for $280. They are normally selling for that 18-20 cents a round price.

$280/2000. That’s $0.14/each. I seem to recall that’s the 2007 mag dump 115gr FMJ 9mm price. I was buying the boxes of $50 for $7 before tax on sale at Wally World right about then.

I prefer to say you were prognosticating. Or maybe just engaging in wishful thinking.

The funny thing was that even at 20 cents a round, I could justify loading 9mm at 3 cents a primer, 9 cents a bullet, and a pinch of Titegroup in every case

View attachment 1153273 Saw the new one today…pretty neat. Dunno if I’m a fan or not…

Edit: that counter/display it’s mounted to is about chest height on me,& I’m about 6’. Just to put the size in perspective. It is still big however.

Wife and I stopped by the local Scheels in KC this evening after dinner. When we go in, she goes to the women’s section and I head straight to the reloading section.

Saw the new Frankford press on display. Was recently put up because I was just there 2 weeks ago and they didn’t have it on display.

They had one in stock on the shelf.

I have to say, I do like the top of the bench design over hangover designs, but I would have to lower my 42" high bench. Really like the Summit single station for that .....gives me a feeling of spaciousness around the bench where it is. At least that press isn't too tall for me.

A telescoping post would be good.

Never played with one but the collator post looks to be two pieces with a cloud ler.



If it’s out of the way, or you don’t move the powder measure under it, might be able to just shorten the feed tube and leave one of the posts in the box.
