Your mission if you choose to take it, load 10 rounds on the Area 419 and then 10 rounds on the Forester CO-AX, go shoot either a 10 shot group, or two five shot groups from each press and show the results. I don't care how things measure, I care how they perform.

@patrickc1508 3 года назад

Consistently is great and leads to amazing results. Unless you have the rifle bolted in a vise in a wind free tunnel that’s over 1000yards long, I doubt that you will see a difference in groupings when you’re trying to measure differences in less that 1 thousandth inch. Chances are that your precision rifle already shoots better than you can, and buying this press isn’t going to improve your accuracy. This is a press for “money is no object” people and maybe the top 0.1% of shooters. Unless you’re the type of person that’s consistently shooting 3/8 moa or better, I can’t even imagine buying this press. It’s an awesome piece of equipment, but let’s face it...... most people who buy it won’t even be able to tell a difference down range.

@robsciuk729 3 года назад

If you want to reduce bullet runout even further, may I suggest double seating the bullet, after turning the cartridge 90 degrees in the base plate. This will reduce runout on ANY die, but on a competition die ... it should have particularly good results ... just a suggestion ...

@OFFICIALUND 3 года назад

@@MrMalicious5 I have a Dillon 550b, a Dillon 650XL and a Zero (and a Forster Co-Ax and.a Redding T-7 and a RCIV). They are completely different presses with completely different purposes. It's probably one of those things that you have to actually have the Zero in front of you to be able to "get it". They both produce ammo, sure, and the Dillon will do it faster, no doubt. But getting the consistency of the Zero with a Dillon will never happen.

@MrMalicious5 3 года назад

@@OFFICIALUND Plenty of guys loading sub 1/2 MOA ammo on a Dillon. I really doubt the Zero’s consistency would make any practical difference.

@OFFICIALUND 3 года назад

@@MrMalicious5 Are you shooting F Class? Or shooting past 600 yards? If not, no, the difference probably won't be noticeable. Are you trying to hit an IPSC at 1250 yards 5 times in a row? You're going to want to have every possible thing in your favor. You kind of missed my point about 1/2 MOA. My point was that if the shooter can't shoot 1/2 MOA in the first place, the press won't matter, because no matter what, the shooter won't be able to take advantage of the improvement. The consistency will be appreciated by the shooters that are capable of "shooting as well as the rifle" and can therefore take advantage of what improved ammo in said rifle offers. I measured several hundred rounds of .338LM, .308 and 6.5CM. The improvement was real.

@E.L.RipleyAtNostromo 3 года назад

Very nice! I can see having as many as three calibers setup on this machine, or two with a dedicated universal decapper and say a factory crimp die for each caliber. I also really like their unique shellholder setup, as well as the numbered stations on the tool head. Looks like a direct higher-end competitor to the Redding T-7. Thanks for the detailed overview. P.S. I know accuracy is it’s own reward, but I could buy 4 Forster Co-Ax presses for $1200, LOL! I have two excellent single stage presses and a Dillon progressive for now, so think I’ll be sticking with those, but maybe someday...!

@charlesbolin7249 3 года назад

The one thing that really stood out to me about the 419 is the time and effort put into the ram mechanism. Man, the way they designed it, it appears that it will never wear out. You can't hear any metal to metal sound when the ram is being operated. I know that most of the intent of the design is for extreme accuracy, but it also lends to minimal wear which I find more interesting. For that alone it's well worth the money. I won't ever need to have ammunition that accurate, but I'd pay the price just for the piece of mind and not to have to constantly tweak and adjust due to slop in the ram and turret heads. I don't shoot much, so in my process, I zero primed cases on a scale, weigh the charge, drop it in the case, and weigh the case to keep them within a 10th of a grain tolerance just as a little extra precaution for personal piece of mind. I respect and enjoy the entire process of reloading and therefore do not mind the extra time invested in it, the end result is just as rewarding if not more rewarding than shooting the ammunition after producing it. This new press truly appears to be as close to "bullet proof" as you can get.

@BB_Chaptsick 3 года назад

I've been reloading with my Lyman Spartan single-stage press for nearly 50 years. It still performs quite nicely. If someone were to say to me that the ammunition that I reload with this $1,200 press would be so much better, I would respond "I wouldn't be able to tell the difference!" If I were competing at Camp Perry, well ... maybe. But I'm not, so I'm going to save $1,200 and stick with my 50 year-old Spartan!

I watched the graphics on the packaging and thought, "That cost money.," Then I saw the way it was packed and thought, "That cost money." And then I learned it was made of aluminum. A turret press like this versus a single stage press like a lowly RCBS Rock Chucker is only about convenience. It was a great try. Does it make better ammo? At $1200 vs. $150 I suppose it could. But maybe not enough to matter $1050.

@steverowe2943 3 года назад

I would be interested in a direct comparison of accuracy with the Zero press versus what you were using to reload this cartridge previously (cartridges loaded during same session to minimize variables). The press is pricey and I am sure it is very nice but, the real value is if the accuracy is notably improved.

At this price point (understandable if they're hand machined one at a time), it only makes sense if you're using fairly large rifle cartridges that require extreme precision. If you make money as a competative marksman, I could see getting one. If that $1200 would then start making me money, why not. Otherwise, not worth the expense in my opinion.

Something about the press rubs people the wrong way! A lot of haters out there. Would I buy it? No. I don't need that precision in a round. I also don't have that ridiculous expensive scale he is using for the same reason. Did they call it "zero" because thats what's in your wallet after you pay for it? Maybe. But it is fine craftsmanship and there is a group of people who want that level of precision. Best of luck 419, I can't justify the cost personally but I hope there are many that can.

For $1,200 you would think they’d throw in the dust cover. That’s a bit of a slap in the face. Even the hornady AP press throws in a free dust cover for half the price. I know the cost to manufacture is much higher but at least for the first year of sales they should throw in the dust cover as a thank you for taking the chance on such a new product with such a high cost.

@InvestorAcademyPodca 3 года назад

FClass guys will spend money on anything that works, we'll see how many of them buy them and don't go back to their old presses. The biggest difference in high quality presses today is mainly efficiency, can you do the same thing as the other press but faster with feeders, motors, etc. With this one, it seems to be slower than a normal press as you have to tighten the bolt every time you move a station and there is no real options for automating the press or feeding. I found huge improvements in quality dies and measurement equipment, but I load on several presses and can't say I've seen any variation in loaded ammo quality from one press to the next as long as you set them up right and know how to use them properly.

So he takes his $1.20/rd brass, runs it in a $1400 annealer. Then sizes it in custom made dies in his $1200 press. Takes it over to the $600 primer. Then off to his $1000 scale for a powder charge. By the time you pay for shipping and tax, you're over $5000 for a single stage reloading set up. Get real!

You hit the nail on the head that’s the problem with these guys They keep getting free stuff and they feel obligated to use it. All he needs now is someone to give him a high-end pocket knife then he could open the box with it. Lol

@castironbuckeye 3 года назад

@@maxxbear5014 Exactly!!!! Keeps getting top end stuff given to him, now his reloading process is so far removed from 99% of his audience that it only vaguely resembles what they do. Taking my broke ass back over to JRB where I can relate...

@savage22bolt32 3 года назад

I just buy factory ammo. Have been for 50 years. Never tried reloading. But mostly shooting handguns, no precision long range stuff. If I was to start reloading 9mm, 45acp, what would be a good progressive set-up? I would want something that would pass on to my kids & grandkids. (If they still have the 2A)

@castironbuckeye 3 года назад

@@savage22bolt32 I have never used a progressive press myself. Only used a single stage press, for my bolt guns. There must be multiple places to find info and comparisons on them. On this channel or Johnny's Reloading Bench.

@dangerranger4323 3 года назад

I don’t need one but I do want one. I’m not sure with the current methods dies are put in that this will be able to make better ammo that other presses. But it does seem like a joy to use, and I think that matters for something you use a lot

@BlackdogADV 3 года назад

I’m a sucker for CNC precision equipment. With 9 stations you could set it up with 3 different calibers. I’d love to have one but I’ll have to be happy with my Rockchucker and 550c.

I see a lot of comments about price,I’m in the uk and mines cost £1560 that’s $2100 lol,life is not a rehearsal,we only get one go around,so if you want it treat yourself

I think we need a turret shootout at this point, complete with a reload shootout at the range.

@happyhome41 2 года назад

At first blush, this looks really appealing - as maybe a beautiful specimen of human walking along the shoreline in front of you. But in the event, even you struggle to answer, and so avoid the real question: "What do I do with it ?" And it's still one case at a time.

@frankfraticelli2967 3 года назад

It's always amazing to see the great lengths someone will go to, to make a very simple process complicated and ridiculously expensive.

I like the music in the intro. This thing is strong, as FClass John says, it's Chuck Norris's press LOL

@appreciativeobserver4732 3 года назад

Impressive. I have to wonder about benchrest shooters that I know personally who can hit a dime (11/16" or 0.688" or 17.46mm) CONSISTENTLY at 100 yards with a lot less expensive press than the 419. The best I can do is hit a quarter CONSISTENTLY at 100 yards using L E Wilson Handloading Dies and an Arbor Press. I wish ZERO all the success they deserve and that there are enough customers who want their press above all others. Your review, as always, is thorough and clearly explained. Keep up the good work that you do.

@jilljones1829 3 года назад

Great in-depth video Gavin (thumbs up!). However... at $1,200... that makes me happier I'm loading with a $65 RCBS Partner press.

@6NBERLS 3 года назад

You might consider a plain backdrop curtain. The tools behind you tend to obscure and complicate the view of the press.

@pauldenruyter4194 3 года назад

I dont care about cost; I'll take quality over cost everyday. Everyone keeps recommending this and the more I look at it, the more intrigued I am. You should do a comparison video of the Area 419 vs Präzipress or Salvadori Firenze Supersport Eterna? These are the 3 presses I'm giving consideration to purchasing in the very near future and all are in the same price range. I know you were high on the Präzipress so which one would be your choice of the two and why?

@stewmanmilner7843 3 года назад

@fastmonaro05 3 года назад

Very nice!!!!! I am still very happy with my Forster which I thought was the best when I got it. End of the day its how those rounds group that matter. Dies, powder, projectiles, cases, barrels are all factors as well. I guess having the best Press does help that is very well made as quality does pay for itself. Very well engineered though that press. So lets take a 308 or 260 Rem and load using this press VS Redding VS Forster using same dies ect.

@paulvenn4447 3 года назад

When is someone going to make a higher quality auto indexing turret press? (aka a more precision version of the Lee Classic Turret?) I don't want just a single stage press, but I also don't want a full progressive, I want that automated in between but with good runout/die holding capabilities.

@PatriotPaulUSA 3 года назад

I think they do Paul its just there are so many more moving parts and tolerance stacking adds up in auto indexing presses. I looked hard for a year for the same thing. Read reviews specs etc on everything . I finally settled on a Dillon 550 a manual indexing 4 position press. I found I like hand priming after washing and trimming anyway. Think about that . Hope that helps brother. You can own it for less than this turret too. I own presses of every color but if I want best quality precision its done on my Dillon.

@randalkidd7562 3 года назад

My Redding turrent press acquired a little play in it /so took of a little metal from center sleeve / which made turrent impossible to turn with bolt locked ! So I keep large T-handle Allen wrench in bolt on top/ when I index, I break bolt loose turn turrent , and lock it down again !!! ZERO Tolerance/ I think this is the same or better an cheaper ! Jus sayin

@scotthussell4506 3 года назад

Looks like another great AREA 419 product. To summarize all the negative comments here: "I can do that on a cheaper press." Well, ya ain't wrong. I can also eat ramon noodles at home and get full but I'd rather take my wife to the Bellagio and wine and dine her fine ass.

@scotthussell4506 3 года назад

@00 00 yep, i have a coax also. Does the cost take away from the quality of the press? Buy what you want. "Stupid" wtf are you 12
