3 days ago

Debut of a 1950s Pacific Power "C" reloading press. This is the first time using this press. In this video we wrap up the final rounds of the batch of 100 38 Special we were building for the first time with this press.

We discover another bad bullet for a total of 2 badly sized bullets from the factory. It happens.

We do a final powder throw check and final measurements of the finished cartridges.

We wrap up by sharing final thoughts on the first use of the 1950s Pacific Power "C" press and talk about some of the other vintage equipment for comparison. This turned out to be a great press! I expect to use it a lot going forward.

In a follow on video we will fire a few of these rounds.
