I bought this press about a year ago when I first started reloading. It’s been a great press to learn the ropes on, and has the advantage that it doesn’t need fixing to a bench. In fact, you can plonk on the kitchen table and away you go.

They used to come mounted on a board with a little plaque, but they don’t now a days, but I’ll send it with the plank it’s currently mounted on if you would like it.

Helston bought up what original Wamadet parts there were and the manufactured those that were missing, they re did the priming system as well.

Nice presses, I use a couple and have been using one for decades, They should not considered just a beginners press as they will do anything any other single stage will, also they can just be bolted to a bench and there is no over hang.

If imitation is the greatest form of flattery then RCBS's new summit press is a Wamadet copy.

I have been sorely tempted here but someone else should have crack at owning and using a great British design reloading press.

Good luck with the sale.

My friend next door has had one for years. He also has a Dillon but still does all his rifle calibers on the Wamadet.
