Interesting review of the different presses. However, like most mechanical items there will usually be some variation from one unit of a particular brand/model to another unit of the same. Maybe even the next one off the assembly line. Therefore the test results are largely irrelevant.

The Rock Chucker has been the standard for generations. I run a RCII and 2 Redding T-7s and 4 RCBS Partner presses in the drawer for a future endeaver. I will probably set one up for pulling bullets with my grip-n-pull bullet puller. Also I never pop primers out on my press as I like to keep my bench clean thanks to a must have tool Harveydeprimer.com

I have a co-ax a rcbs turret and Redding T7 I like the co-ax the best it see's the most use in fact the RCBS will be heading out to pasture shortly. I will not say I think the co-ax loads lower runout ammo than the rest it is simply a pleasure to use. I like the over head ergonomics of it, the insanely fast die changes and very clean primer collection. I will prime my large rifle primer calibers on it but I shoot very few of them generally speaking for any volume priming get a hand primer. The co-ax is a pricey investment and not for everyone I tinker a great deal in the reloading room and for me I would probably consider it my best reloading investment. Look at it like this a Fort Pinto and a Jaguar will both get you from point A to point B one is just more to drive.
