Just acquired a reloading system and need some advice pls

[sjnolloth]

 

Just bought this from a guy who was clearing out his late dads reloading stuff as part of a deal.

What i would like to know is there is no makers name on it at all apart from on the handle which says : flexigrip model b

any ideas what make and model and how old it is?

Also from the photos can anyone tell me what size cartridges it will do and is there anything missing from the setup as this is all i got with it? The guy tells me 12g as thats all his dad reloaded but i want to find out for sure.

 

 

 

Thanks for looking,

Looks a bit like an old Lyman or early Hornady.

Would guess mid/late-60's or early 70's

I have a few reloading friends in the States. Just described it to them, waiting a reply. I would guess early Hornady.

Have an identical one.

It's a Lyman "Easy" press with an after-market powder dispenser fitting.

Excellent bit of kit.

Does it look complete?

There are six rings on that silver bit does this mean anything?

Any help appreciated as i am a complete beginner and would like to give it a try..
