The RCBS Pro Chucker 7 is built for folks who go through ammo faster than they can load it on a single-stage. With seven stations and auto-indexing, you can run a load rate of around 600 rounds per hour, which puts a real dent in a weekend reloading session. That extra station count is the whole point of this press. Instead of giving something up to make room for a crimp die or a powder check, you get space for all of it at once.
Most progressives make you pick and choose. On the Pro Chucker 7 you can seat bullets and crimp at separate stations, run a Lock-Out or Powder Checker die to catch no-charge and double-charge conditions, and still have room for a bullet feeder if you want to add one down the road. That dedicated crimp station is a big deal for anyone chasing consistency, since you're not asking one die to do two jobs. Station seven handles crimping or a factory crimp die without bumping a loading step out of the lineup.
The quick-change die plate is where this press earns its keep for mixed-caliber loaders. Leave your dies set up in a plate, and switching from 9mm to 45 ACP becomes a matter of swapping the whole plate and the shell plate rather than threading dies in and out one at a time. The large-capacity Quick Change powder measure holds roughly two pounds of powder, so you refill the hopper far less often during long runs, and the quick-change drain tube lets you empty it without pulling the measure off the press. Quick Change metering assemblies make switching powders a quicker job too.
The frame is die-cast aluminum with a 4.625-inch operating window and RCBS's familiar green powder-coat finish, with the load-bearing parts built in steel. A Zerk fitting makes lubrication painless, spent primers drop out the bottom into a receptacle, and a loaded cartridge bin catches your finished rounds. It's made in the U.S.A. and backed by a limited lifetime warranty. Keep in mind a shell plate is required and sold separately, matched to your cartridge the same way you'd pick a shell holder.
No, a shell plate is required to run the press and is sold separately. You match the shell plate number to your cartridge the same way you'd choose a shell holder, so a 9mm Luger uses a #16 and .223 Remington uses a #10. Plan on grabbing the correct plate for each caliber you intend to load.
The press is rated at roughly 600 rounds per hour for pistol under typical use, thanks to its seven-station auto-indexing design. Real-world speed depends on your rhythm and how many accessories you're running, but it's plenty quick for high-volume sessions.
The extra stations let you run your full loading sequence plus a powder check or Lock-Out die and a dedicated crimp station all at the same time. You don't have to sacrifice one job to make room for another, which helps with consistency and gives you room to add a bullet feeder later.
The quick-change die plate is the key here. You can leave your dies set up in a plate, so changing calibers means swapping the whole plate and the matching shell plate rather than threading dies in and out individually. The Quick Change powder measure and metering assemblies speed up powder changes too.
