Beginner loading/21st century hydro press question

[Dthomas3523]

Putting together my loading bench. The last piece I’m undecided on is the press.

Forster Co-Ax or 21st hydro press.

I’ll be depriming and priming by hand.

This is probably a noob question, but can I size brass in the hydro, or is that mainly/only for seating?

Thanks

It’s only for seating and with mild seating pressure. This is not a press for beginners.

tell us all the equipment you are using so we can get a better idea what you have and make suggestion on possible upgrades later.
a hydro press is not for a noob. Once you master the basics the you might get to a hydro press. But most who buy them don't use them.

Get the Forster Co-Ax. I am very happy with it.
They are widely used. There will be a lot of advice/support from others about using that press.
That said 21st Century makes quality stuff.
