Can you estimate approximate pounds of force required to operate this press for, say, a 30-30 size cartridge case?

Not much. I have no problem full length resizing properly lubricated 7mm Rem Mag with that press. If an average person has a grip strength of between 70-80 pounds, I'd estimate no more than 20-30 for 30-30. If you're on the fence, I'd say go for it. My dad has a nice Lyman press, and he still bought this one in addition to his first one after he tried using mine. Can't go wrong.

I'd say it's about 4 pounds without looking at the specs, much heavier than the square press. Its very effective. It's not til you have one that you realize all the uses.

I would estimate about 4 lbs. Works great for grilling bacon or sandwiches, as a press.

About 1 pint of cases or maybe a little more. Overloading could hinder the effectiveness.

Unfortunately, I cannot answer your question. My coffee press arrived in pieces and, because I was out-of-town when it was delivered, I missed the deadline by which it could be returned.

I believe it will if you are careful about the weight if the rocks. Cartridge cases are relatively light.-

I don't know a pounds rating, but it's strong-made for those heavy old CRT monitors. I wouldn't be afraid to put a substantial printer on it.

I do not know the answer, my review that this is press is garbage. I sold it to someone else.

The heads have a diameter of 30mm. I don't have a scale, but the hammer feels about a pound.

It will work either way bulk or cartridge.The instructions included explain how.

i do not believe that it is large enough to reload the 30.06 cartridge.For 5.56 and 9mm, it is a great press. It takes a little tweaking to get it running perfect, and in the case of your 5.56 cases, you'd have to clean and swage your primer pockets beforehand.

Short answer is "YES". You can load cartridges up to -"Maximum overall length this reloading press can accept is 3.650-Inch". The longest 308 I found was 2.8 inch.

Absolutely! This press takes standard shell holders and dies. It's especially nice for pistol loading since multiple steps are often needed (say, separate seating and crimping) and you can just rotate the turret with the cartridge in place and not have to do a totally separate stage.

I don't have the precise weight...But it's negligible to say the least. You cannot fill a difference in the weight of the gun with or without them.

I'm using 0.130 in mine, which works quite well. It is a snug fit through the No Brainer, but patience and a strong touch on the button wins out.

Depends mainly on the metal thickness your cutting, Lotos suggests minimum of 52lbs PSI @ 2CFM.

The bullet puller I bought works without any connection to a loading press and dies. You simply fasten the loaded cartridge into the tool and tighten down the end piece then strike a hard surface as you would a hammer. It's slow but works well.
