RCBS Summit Single Stage Press 09290

The RCBS Summit Single Stage Press features an innovative top-down design that lowers the reloading die onto the stationary case. Built with a rugged cast iron frame, heavy-duty steel linkage, and a massive 2-inch polished steel ram, this press delivers exceptional rigidity and smooth operation for full-length sizing and projectile seating.

Its open-front C-frame layout and generous 4.5-inch opening provide direct, unobstructed access to the cartridge case. With zero mechanical linkage hanging below the bench level, the Summit mounts cleanly on crowded workbenches and offers fully ambidextrous operation for right- or left-handed reloaders.
