I think I am about to get a good deal. The guy said he just wants it to go to somebody that will use it. did not quote a price at all but said come with what you can pay. It is in an old sewing machine box. He said it contains everything one needs except bullets and powder.
Rock chucker press 44 mag dies 300 win mag dies assorted primers for both rounds of unknown amounts. 800 44 mag brass 700 300 win mag brass relaoding manuals from speer. scales, tumbler case trimmer and everything I wanted to go get it tonight but have the kids, so noon tomorrow.
I sure hope this is the kit I have been waiting to pick up at a good price.
I can start finally looking at dies for my major rounds I don't shoot much anymore. My 35 rem, my 222 rem and that odd ball 7-30 waters.

If the price turns out to be reasonable, that's a super deal. At today's prices, the brass alone is worth a chunk. I'm sure you're familiar with the Rockchucker- it's kind of the press all others get compared to, and for good reason. I've never seen or heard of a Rockchucker that was worn out. I doubt if it's possible, without some God Awful abuse.

Photo's coming soon.
I got the whole mess for 250 cash.
Includes 10 boxes of 250 mag large rifle primers. If My math is correct that is over 250 dollars itself.

I think you stole it! I've used a RC for the better part of 45+ years and have never had a problem. Dan

I am reading the manual right now. Never have reloaded other than shotgun shells.
I don't own or know anybody with a 300 win mag. I have to check I think the Winchester brass is the match stuff. I need to find instructions on the tumbler and some of its plastic/rubber is got some rot. Might just sell off the 300 win mag stuff and recoup so cash outlay. I knew I was buying a on-sale RC and the rest is free.
