I have the rock chucker (supreme) as my first and only press thus far, and while it seems to work well, there's something to be appreciated when it comes to precision machining, that this press clearly has. It seems to be a few steps above the rock chucker, in more ways than one. This appears to be a precision made, well though out, piece of equipment, made in the US it seems, and I don't think that price sounds unreasonable. If I ever decided to upgrade, I think I know what I would get, if I could afford it. That said, I love the rock chucker! It seems to do everything I could ever want. It's just a simpler piece of equipment, made to lower specs, it seems to me. It's obvious you are paying more for the Nexus, because you are getting more, and it required much more time and tooling to produce. They might both produce an equally performing cartridge, but the Nexus looks much more ergonomic and practical, and yes, even more precise. When these guys get around to testing the products of this press, we will find out if that money is well spent, and in which ways it is better, or worse.

I have both the zero and the NEXUS. I have used Zero for 2 years and loaded 1,000s of rounds. The devil is in the details, I now exclusively resize brass on NEXUS and seat bullets on Zero due to speed. It's has been significantly easier to keep consistent shoulder bump on NEXUS. I run AMP annealer and soon will be using AMP press for seating. Both will do excellent job but I may sell my Zero or use it for my hunting rifles.

been watching you for while and ive never commented before. Ive reloaded for years and i replaced my tmag with a area 419 after watching one of your videos. I shoot with my son to 1000yrds. On both presses. But the 419 is definitely "easier " to use. But the same results. With that being said id be interested in seeing a series or video of "real world reloading " cause damn it gets expensive. (Not like it use to be) with a buget press and a premiere press.

@clausziegler5720 Ай бұрын

Hi, I have this press - got it approx 3 weeks ago, but I have not used it yet, just installed it to the bench. Right now I am doing some other reloading with dies which are not fitting into the Nexus press. What I would like to understand in a better way are the 2 different size of "stoppers" for cam over and non cam over. When you showed the sizing with the cam over stoppers (the shorter ones) the result was approx -0,0075" of shoulder bump. What would have been the result with the non cam over stoppers - the longer stoppers? In both cases when the die is touching the shell holder? And would the result for the non cam over stoppers also be consistent? (it should be from what I understood from the SAC presentation) The next question is how to handle 2 different rifles, same caliber but a different reamer and therefore a different chamber for the optimal shoulder set back??? How to adjust the die in the press in a way that you can reproduce the result between different work sessions for the 2 different rifles and different should bump requitrements?? My problem is that there is no need that the die is always touching the shellholder, because the stopper is the reference for the final end position of the press (SAC presentation: Less shoulder bump: screw it out; More shoulder bump: Screw it in), but than your die is "hanging in the air" you have no reference point - it is optimized for 1 specific chamber/rifle. My conclusion would be that for the best consistent result for 2 rifles, same caliber but different shoulder bump I should use 2 dies??? Or working with shims to "measure" the position of the die?? I have a number of SAC items and and like very much their "out of the box" thinking to bring new ideas to the reloading procedure. The Nexus press is another great and solid piece of equipment.

@BRENDANTHERED Ай бұрын

Why won't your other dies fit in this press, does the Nexus use a proprietary thread / system to connect the dies? I presume (I'm pretty new to reloading) that one has to readjust the dies for every loading session, if you want to change between loading for different firearms, as you describe. Or else just load to the standard COL, or less than.

@clausziegler5720 Ай бұрын

@@BRENDANTHERED The Nexus press is accepting 7/8" dies and 1" dies (which is a new form factor for me). The dies I am using at the moment are 1 1/4" diameter size (Warner Tool for example) Those dies are not fitting into the Nexus press.

They look nice but bottom line it’s a press that has less to do with precision more to do with the reloader over the Press. If you load a lot of calibers and want to save time swapping dies.

Dont get me wrong, this press looks amazing!! I'd love to own one, but I can't see enough benefit over my 25 year old rockchucker to spend 700 bucks on one. If I was new to precision shooting and didn't have a press, maybe I'd consider one, but there are many great presses for under 400 bucks that will get the job done and last a lifetime

@davecollins6113 Ай бұрын

As nice as it is, and I have zero doubts about the quality and fit and finish, it is kinda expensive, shell holders and die lock ring will definitely add up in a hurry on top of the press price. It could have been done just as well, without some of the bling, and worked out a lot cheaper than it is.

@BRENDANTHERED Ай бұрын

Yes, but obviously they weren't going for cheaper, it appears they were going for most practical and most precise, IMO. We will see if it's actually worth the precision ($) when they do a test on the cartridges produced by this thing. I hope it performs as well as she looks, that thing is a beauty.

@Franklinguy759 Ай бұрын

I love the “better mouse trap”. I’m sure it works well and looks cool. I just wish I was 40 years younger so when all you guys think that a better press will get you higher scores and have the revelation that that doesn’t work I could buy your used press for 1/3 the cost.

The 57 Chevy was a great American Classic Car but anyone who thinks that it is as Safe, Comfortable, Fast and efficient as Modern Production cars simply doesn’t know what they are talking about! The Rockchucker is a classic press. Today’s Chinese forged Rockchuckers can certainly load good ammo. Anybody that thinks they are as smooth, accurate and precise as a Nexus or Area 419 Press simply doesn’t know what they are talking about! As in optics to get a little better you have to pay a LOT more. If you can’t afford an $800 press no worries, keep enjoying your RockChucker just don’t make yourself look stupid by saying a Camaro is just as good as a Bugatti……..

Maybe you are going blind? You don't see the ammount of machining that went into this equipment? I'd guesstimate there is 10 times the machining in this press and associated tools. That might be an exaggeration but I doubt it's that far off. Most other presses are mass produced and it's easy to see it, plenty of rough spots. This press looks hand made (or better) with precision, and that takes time and special tools. Maybe they could perform equally as well, but that is doubtful, as I can see a few advantages that this press has over most others, and that is just at a glance.
