The CSP-2 Mega-Mite Press utilizes Type -H dies, accommodating a wide range of calibers from 17 caliber up to 25mm, including 50 BMG. This versatility allows users to swage various bullet types, from small varmint rounds to large-caliber projectiles.
The CSP-2 Mega-Mite Press is larger and more robust than the S-Press, allowing it to handle a broader range of calibers and more demanding swaging operations. The S-Press is suitable for smaller calibers and lighter swaging tasks, while the Mega-Mite offers increased capacity and versatility for larger calibers and more complex bullet designs.
The Hydro-Press is a hydraulically driven press designed for high-volume production and heavy-duty swaging, suitable for large-caliber bullets and extensive reloading tasks. In contrast, the CSP-2 Mega-Mite Press is a manual press, offering precise control for smaller batches and a more hands-on reloading experience. The choice between the two depends on individual needs, including production volume and the specific calibers being swaged.
