FORSTER COAX press B5

FORSTER COAX-PRESS B5 - Product Description
Reloading doesn't have to be complicated. The Co-Ax® press makes it easy while still delivering the proven precision of Forster equipment.
The Co-Ax® loading press has many special features that make it truly unique, such as:

Easy die changes with a snap closure. Changing the sizing die to the seating die takes only two seconds.
Catch system for used primers. Used primers and residue are channeled through a tube into a container. This keeps the equipment free from dirt and abrasives.
Two freely swinging guide rods ensure perfect alignment.
Since absolutely no torque is transmitted to the head of the Co-Ax® press, the durability of the device is the rule, not the exception. Thanks to the special design of the connectors and bearings, the machine is always balanced, whether operating under maximum load or at rest.
The Co-Ax® press is three times superior to a standard "C-press" in terms of effort required. It requires so little force that even when fully sizing, the lever could be operated with a pinky finger. No strain, great effect.
The Co-Ax® press provides perfect alignment of the die and the case because the jaws of the case holder are designed to move freely with the die. This allows the case to center itself precisely in the die.
There are no support pillars for the frame or a swinging primer seating arm that could get in the way during operation. The press offers plenty of freedom of movement for both right- and left-handed users.
The Co-Ax® press works with all common 7/8”x14 reloading dies, and in some cases with the existing thread rings. However, we recommend using Forster thread rings.
The unique attachment primer seating device seats the primers factory-correctly. The seating punch is always at a right angle to the case head. The primers cannot turn or tip over. They are seated straight and evenly, always at the same distance from the case head. Also, crushing or protruding of the primers from the case head (which could cause premature ignition) is excluded.
The lever stroke has a rock-solid locking mechanism at the end. This is important for consistent closure distance and uniform measurements when seating bullets.

The jaws of the case holder of the Co-Ax® press guarantee perfect alignment. In the first test of this unique case holder design by the manufacturer, 200 once-fired .375 H&H Magnum cases were fully sized in a dry and unlubricated condition. Neither the case heads were damaged, nor did any case get stuck in the die. The case heads and edges showed no imprints from the jaws, as the case holder is freely suspended, allowing the cartridge case to center itself in the die. When a case is in the case holder, it is held by spring-loaded jaws that touch the bottom of the guide groove, which ensures better removal of the spent parts. The case holder also operates self-releasing, meaning that when a case is placed in the press and the lever is actuated, the jaws open and close over the cartridge rim. When the lever is pushed up, the jaws automatically open and release the case.
