Perfect for anyone

Have had this little single stage press for nearly 35 years. Never an issue and I have loaded thousands of rounds in various calibers (mostly handgun). With no complaints or issues. It's perfect for anyone. I prefer a single stage press that's why I have not changed.

Changed the handle to a short

I bought a ball knob handle and a 4" 7/16x20 threaded bolt and really shortened the throw. I'll make a you tube video soon. Mike V

Great Press

I don't know why they call it a secondary or portable press. I have loaded thousands of rounds with it and it has performed flawlessly. I was going to get a Rock Chucker press but they were out of stock. Got this and never looked back.

Handy little press.

I love the little guy. I use it for utility work. I mostly use a universal expanding die it it for cast bullets. And for fixing out of round case openings. Fits perfectly between my 2 turret press's.

Partner press spent primer decap issues

Loads .25-06, .308 Win & .223 REM with ease. I full length size all three calibres easily on the Partner press. Bullet seating is effortless. My one issue is that the spent primer catcher is very poorly designed. I hand prime, Do not utilise press prime function. 10% of the spent primers are captured in the spent primer catcher. Many drop out through the slot for the priming arm. VERY agrivating. Considering Amazon return.

Good price, shipped reasonably fast

Excellent light duty press. Wish it was cast steel but for light duty like decapping, priming, possibly seating, will do nicely.

4 star

Couldn't give it 5 stars because it does not have the larger die threads like the supreme. I was hoping to utilize the lock and load system from hornady on this unit. But it works with everything else I wanted.

Almost 30 years and counting

I got my first Partner press in 1992 I think, I got another one about 20 years ago and I continue to use them without an issue. I'm actually not sure why it's considered a beginner press, it does anything any other single stage press does and takes up less space on the bench.

Great Press

I have my RCBS Partner press for nearly 10 years and have loaded several thousand rounds with it ranging from 380acp to 300 Win Mag with no problems. I measured the throat clearance on it and the Rock Chucker and it actually has a bit more so it's easier to load the longer cases. Yes, I do full length resize belted magnum cases in it with no problems.
