Al's Review of Frankford Arsenal X-10 Progressive Press w/Case Feeder

I am absolutely stunned! I have been reloading ammo for 45 years. I have every kind of single-station press there is and multi-stage press. I have three Dillon presses, a RL550B, XL650 and XL750. The Franklin Arsenal X-10 is the finest press I have ever gotten my hands on and not just for the money. It is built like a Swiss tank. It is smooth to operate without any slop. The parts fit precisely together. The fit and finish are just fantastic. The only downside is the amount of grease they pack it in. It's a pain to remove but that is just fine. It shows they care even about that.

I have never used a Dillon RL1100 or a Mark 7 but this is surely in that class.
The only thing I wish they would have done was to make the case-activated powder measure also expand the case mouth, as the Dillon powder measures do. The powder measure itself is awesome but if it could use the Dillon-style powder through expander funnels...that would be amazing. It would really help with bullet tipping when using a Mr Bullet Feeder and not waste a die station by having to use a Lyman M-die. also, the powder funnels available are specifically designed to work with the Mr Bullet Feeder. We could use a 223 expander funnel too by the way.

I don't have the bullet feeder yet so I'm using my Mt Bullet Feeder, which is not ideal. The F/A bullet feeder integrates into the top of the machine die holder. I hope it works as well as the rest of the machine.

I would not hesitate to buy another X-10. I don't know how they can improve the basic machine itself but I look forward to using mine.
