DML's Review of Forster Co-Ax Press
I recently bought the Co-Ax. My concern is high quality reloading for long range shooting. I also have a Redding T7, and a L.E. Wilson inline die and K/M arbor press. The results with the Co-Ax are exact precision rounds made that produce very tight groups! As a long range shooter I'm not concerned about making rounds fast, hence a progressive is not for me. I will say that after you get the dies set up they can be swapped out rather fast and hence loading 50-100 rounds does not take long at all. I've been very impressed with the runout. I check the final rounds with a Forster gauge and find 0.0 - .5 runout is the norm. Recent rounds loaded on this press produced a 5 shot group at 100 yards with a 6.5 CM 140gr Berger projectile. ( Nosler brass). The group was a single hole only .112" wider than the width of the bullet. The load was 39.5 gr of staball power, and an overall length of 2.8065. Powder was measured with an FX-120 scale. Adv velocity was 2452, sd of 7.3 ES of 18 fps. I could not ask for a better loading tool than a Forster co-ax. Add to that the customer service is outstanding! Highly recommended!
