I use the Redding and love it I can load up to 375 Cheytac without any problems.

I reload more than 60 cartridges, mostly overload experiments on guns I dissect.

The co-ax is great for fast changes of dies and case head sizes.

It also takes less coordination to get the case close to the jaws than to slide a case into a shell holder. That makes it a little faster and easier on the back.

all sounds good, the co-ax is cheaper anyway

The B3 version will seat 338LM with no clearance issues
