S.B.P. Reloading Kit

item not represented as picture suggests. pieces missing out of box, loading press for one, and the stem tower for the bowl to be held in place. came two days late, when shipped from the same facility. the one piece that was in like new condition was the scale and I'm not to sure that it will work. if pieces are missing say so in advertisement.

Solid starting kit for basic pistol reloading. Includes all the essentials to get started and practice with a single stage press.

For a begginers kit this was a great purchase and i am already enjoying the press. it was easy to set up and easy to use i thoroghly enjoy the kit.

Press does not line up correctly (poor poor quality). I would not recommend this press. Reloading is precision and this press is not worth putting in this combo package.

I gave the scale and tumbler to kids to play with. WOWPress seems to be ok for now we will see how long it holds up.

This like many things we find today, you see many countrys involved Italy,France ,UK China , maybe more. The product is OK evenso. ,

I bought this press mainly out of curiosity (I have 3 other presses and been reloading off and on for 25+ years). The press has little going for it, but it does have a nice wooden ball on the handle. The quality of the manufacturing is that of a third world country where the metal is hammered out over a camp fire with a rock for a hammer. Operating the handle gives a rough, gritty feel (I cleaned and lubed but no improvement), the ram is undersize for the hole (or the hole is drilled too big), the ram does not line up with the die threads. I tried depriming/sizing some 38 Spec. brass. I had to guide each case into the die (about 1/8" off) and not enough leverage to easily run the case into the die, even when I lubed the brass (I use carbide dies). That didn't work so, I tried using a Ram Prime. The primer would hit the side of the primer pocket and had to be guided in every time. That didn't work, so I tried sizing some bullets with a Lee push through die. Even with the tapered entry on the die I had to guide each bullet into the die and lack of suffecient leverage made the task difficult. I gave up at this point and hung the press on the wall above my bench to remind me never to buy Yellow reloading equipment again.This press is so frustrating/difficult to use it would drive away a new reloader at the speed of a 125 gr. bullet over a hefty charge of H110 shot from a .357 Magnum!

I'm new to reloading and don't know much about it but this kit is poor quality and the scale is dangerous. When measuring the correct 4.3gr powder on the smartreloader scale (after calibration)and filling 6 cases with powder and bullets i went to the range and almost blew up my pistol so i went and got a beam scale a good one and did a comparison of the 4.3gr charge and it was a double charge of powder from the smartreloader scale.Now as far as the press well i won't go on about that. This product should be taken off the market.
