Forster Co-Ax Press

Postby foxx11 on Mon Feb 01, 2021 6:13 pm

I have looking for a Forster Co-Ax Press since last November. I have been checking the big sights every day to see if any of them are in stock.
Forster says them have been making them but I wonder what stores are receiving them. I will list the stores I have been checking below.
Please let me know which stores I have been missing? Ebay is price gouging.
Brownell
Forster
Midsouth Shooters Supplies
Midway USA
Natchez Shooters Supplies
Optics Planet

Thanks for any Ideas?

I was wondering what they still had to sell, and how they were managing to stay open? I stopped in a few weeks ago, with a rather wishful list of reloading items I might be able to utilize. The list had dozens of options for bullets, cases, etc...and I didn't even bother mentioning Powder or Primers (didn't want to get laughed out of the store). I found absolutely Zero of anything on my generous wish list.

On another note, I did score 17 pounds of Reloader-50 powder, down at Ahlmans last week. And while it was in 1 lb bottles, it was still only $24.99 a pound. If they would have had more, I would have bought it too. My 50 BMG Match Rounds get 244-248 gr per round. A pound only gets me about 26-27 rounds.

Dang Jim, you need to start shooting my sub-caliber rifle. I get 290 rounds from a pound of Rl-15. ;)
