Many guys pick up one of these big Parkers and say "I could never shoot that thing". But I can say from experience that Parker produced beautifully balanced guns and once you shoot a few rounds you forget about the size and weight.
I just got off the phone with Ken Burns . I’ve got a 600JR coming as well as their resizing setup and an old reconditioned Herters press . If I had an RCBS Rockchucker I wouldn’t need the Herters but at present my rifle presses are incapable of accepting his resizer apparatus. He sent me a picture of the resizer deal in a Herters and an RCBS .

To be honest I’d like to take it out in a cut cornfield for the early resident goose season !

If someone wishes to set up a press to swedge some industrial shells I have an older Herters press they can have for cost of shipping.

Look into the Swap Trade area in the Members only area.
