I hope RCBS's customer service remains as stellar as it always has been.
Don't call them, you will sit on hold for quite a while. Send them an email. Within hours your part will be shipping to you.

I bought a RCBS Rock Chucker single stage press when I was fifteen and 45 years later it is still going strong. I have no complaints about their products.

Huh, wonder what this means!!!
Some people here seem to dog on RCBS. I've had good luck with their equipment.

Most of their stuff is great, their dies suck.
Hodgdon is building quite the monopoly.

Most of their stuff is great, their dies suck. Maybe this is what I was hearing. What is so bad about RCBS dies? Not disputing just curious. I bought a used Matchmaster 308 FL set from here years ago. It was the first die i used alot. I can't say i noticed anything.

Can't predict the future but it looks like a good thing. Keep it here in the US and with a forward looking company like Hodgdon. Yeah, I like it.
"Group think" is not thinking. It is the lack of independent thought. It is a cancer of the mind.

Isn't Vista basically a holding company? Buys low and sells high?

Started with RCBS and never an issue, although I use a lot of Lee dies and molds these days.
