Two machines available. These machines are used to seat or crimp cartridge cases when plate loading. Excellent condition, from Government reserve. These are "ratchet" type, and will seat a full row of cases per stroke. Then index forward 5/8" and seat another row of cases. Perishable tooling has been removed, but they were last set up to plate load 5.56mm cases, and still have the punch holder mounted to the press for holding 17 punches on 1/2" centers. Can be used to seat or crimp any cases of 30-06 length or less that can be held in plates with 5/8" hole centers, or less. No dies or punches available, but we do have a few plates for 5.56mm cases.
Excellent condition, virtually ready to run.
