The Lyman Brass-Smith ideal press is a robust and compact reloading press, ideal for both beginners and seasoned reloaders seeking precision. Its compact design conserves bench space without compromising on durability, featuring a cast iron frame and steel components. The press is equipped with compound linkage for optimal leverage, a 1 inches diameter ram, and a 3-7/8 inches press opening, accommodating all pistol calibers and rifle cartridges up to 3.70 inches in loaded length. The central handle position allows for easy ambidextrous use, complemented by a comfortable ball handle. The press is compatible with all 7/8-14 thread dies and standard shell holders, ensuring versatility and precision.
