Thanks for the clues guys, I didn't realize that was a lighter model. I too think the heavier press would be worth the money, no question!
I have the lighter model and think i made the right choice. Now i have never used the "heavier" one but there is nothing wrong with my press and i've had it just over 2 years and loaded about 10,000 rounds on it so far. Not even a hiccup. Not telling you what to do, just dont completely count it out. I've had good luck with mine.
