Area 419 Zero Turret Reloading Press

[IAM Rand]

I did a quick search to see if there had already been any queries about this new reloading press. Didn't find any.

Just checking to see if anyone has had any experience with this. Doesn't seem like too much new but, maybe better engineered and definitely more expensive. Looks like about $1300 for the press and one turret. Then add in about another $200 per turret.

Looks nice but, don't feel like buying another better built mouse trap.

They had one at our Scheels a while ago but I guess they decided not to carry them all the time. I took a casual look at it so maybe there is more to it than what I saw. My question would be, is it 3X better than a Redding T-7? I kinda doubt it.

My goodness that is a pretty press but the price, just can't see the need. $1,200 preorder, $1,295 after that! Pretty but no thanks, I'm just too cheap... An additional $225 for another turret, I can buy an RCBS Rockchucker for the price of their turret...

$1200/1295 for a Turret Press? I load all my 1000+ yard ammo on a T-7! I cannot believe a 419 Zero could do any better!

What were they thinking / what am I missing? Seems like it’s getting into conveniently equipped Dillon 650/750 price territory for an over machined turret?

Now wait a minute, the Dillon XL750 base system comes with the full progressive press, powder measure, the primer system and pickup tubs, the low primer alarm, a powder die, a tray and Alan wrenches. All that is $699. The XL750 with the package is $939 and included their newest full load manual.

The Zero press is the press and the turret and its not a progressives press and that's $1275.

Sorry, the Dillon 750 is nowhere near the territory of the Zero press.
