Upgrading from Rockchucker to Co-Ax
#4
mpstan Wrote:It's been 6 years since the post discussing T7 vs Co-Ax-- so I hope I'm beyond the statute of limitations for redundant posts. I believe I understand the differences between these two presses, and I'm concluding that a Co-Ax makes sense for me. Looking foward to simplyfing my workflow. Also, doesn't hurt that I'd be in good company.

Would experienced folks venture to suggest what I might use my Rockchucker for if I keep it- bullet puller? Other? I have a lot of bench space.....

I shoot and reload 6.5 x 55 Swede, 204 Ruger, and 6.5 Grendel. My wife shoots 357 and I may get a lever action in same caliber, so some potential for reloading there as well.

Thanks

I have both presses, and while I don’t shoot any 204, I believe its the same rim size as 223/5.56. That means you’ll have to swap out the “jaws” (shell holder) of the Co-AX when resizing the 204! Not the end of the world but, it can get to be a pita if you go back and forth between calibers often. If it were me, I would consider setting up the rockchucker for depriming/resizing 204 cases. Then you can probably get away with just seating bullets in the Co-Ax and the 204 without having to swap jaws.
