New to me Press

Just got this unpacked and man it's one heavy chunk of iron. Got it through John Whidden (he was helping a widow lady liquidate her husbands reloading stuff) and I'm going to gift it to my grandson. It also came with a Inline Fab stand and roller handle.
I only hope the UPS driver didn't get a hernia.

Top of the line, very good press! Made is both 6 and seven stations, and will last two lifetimes. Enjoy quality!

I fantastic press, I have two T7s they are my go to presses.

The priming tube system that can be added has to be the best on press priming system around, well worth adding to make the most of the turrets flexibility.

Mine used to look like that. Used to.
I really like mine, you will enjoy using it.

See the little black nipple on back bottom of the ram? I have a hunk of clear tubing attached there with the other end into a pill bottle. Better than any other method I have seen.

I'll clean her up and setup so my Grandson can come see a top line press in action, then I'll tell him it's his to own and use. Prior owner used it to load for F class so I suspect it's top notch.

BTW, my Grandson reloads on a Lee Challenger Press I got for him a few years ago. He'll eventually wind up with my other 7 presses (RCBS RC x2, Bonanza, Dillon 650, Lee Loadmaster and a couple of smaller Lee Presses.).

Setup and ready to load. Tolerance on the Ram is the best I've ever experienced. Zero slop.

Yes, well Grandson is 21 years old, self employed and a workaholic. I think he needs this "down time" with Grandpa. He also drives NASCAR sanctioned Mod Cars on Dirt Tracks as a hobby, reloading IMO won't be any more dangerous and I hope he finds is just as much fun.

No joke there; start of the season he had a crankshaft snap into; almost $10,000 later he's back in the game.
Here's his ride:
