I've got an older Ponsness/Warren reloading press that has been sitting idle in my Dad's garage for 10 years now. It's a good press and served us fine when reloading 30-06 and .300 win mag - but doesn't fit the bill for what I need now.

I'm going to sell it to fund a 550b - but have no idea what they're worth used? It's the base press with RCBS primer feed tube and large rifle priming hardware. Other than that it's a bare press - what is this thing worth?

I can post up a couple pics tonight if that would help.
 
Try going to their website and see if it looks like any of the presses they still sell. I have a 20 - 30 year old Metal - Matic and they still sell it on their website.
 
That does indeed look like the Metallic II. I don't have one so I can't be certain, but it looks like the picture. I don't think they made a big variety of presses, so that is probably what it is.
 
You could put the auto drive system on that and never have to pull the arm. :)
Doesn't really help the volume but could help if you are weak or lazy. :neener:
