    I had my eye for a while too, since I’m starting to see wear on my single stage lee (probably my fault). I’ve stopped looking for now though because the APP does most everything the challenger was doing. I’d still like to get another single stage, but it’s a ways down the road.

    I don't have a FA M-press but I looked them over pretty closely when they first came out. I think for a bit more cash (and a little luck in finding one in stock) I'd go with the Forster Co-ax over the FA. My next single stage press will probably be a Co-ax. Something to consider for someone who loads a bunch of calibers is that with the FA, you'll need to buy a $5 die block for each die...that can add up fast when you're talking about 60+ sets of dies!

    Those die blocks definitely make me wary. Ive played with the idea of a Forster coax for many many years, and then when FA came out with theirs, it made me start thinking again. Ive also been looking at that mec single stage.

    I think my rock chucker is still running strong. Just got the itch.
