Lyman Brass Smith Victory Single Stage Reloading Press

Product Description

The Lyman Brass Smith Victory Single Stage Reloading Press is a heavy-duty single-stage press designed for precision rifle reloading and other cartridge-loading applications. It combines a rigid cast-iron O-frame with a 1-inch diameter ram and compound linkage for smooth, controlled operation.

The large 5-inch frame opening provides plenty of clearance around the cartridge case. As a result, the press can handle large rifle and magnum cartridges that need additional working space.

In addition, the Victory Press uses a standard 7/8″-14 die thread and accepts standard shell holders. Therefore, reloaders can use compatible Lyman dies and shell holders for a wide range of cartridges.

Lyman Brass Smith Victory Press Design

The Brass Smith Victory Press uses a heavy-duty cast-iron O-frame to keep the die and shell holder aligned during the loading cycle. Furthermore, the 1-inch ram and compound linkage provide strong leverage for demanding sizing operations.

The press uses a precision-fit linkage for smooth operation. In addition, the ball-style handle can operate from either the right or left side.

The 5-inch frame opening gives the reloader more room around the case and die. Therefore, the Victory Press works particularly well with larger rifle cases and magnum cartridges.

Lyman also gives the press a durable powder-coat finish. As a result, the surface can handle normal use on a busy reloading bench.

Lyman Brass Smith Victory Primer Feed

The Victory Press includes Lyman’s straight-line primer feed with both large and small primer tubes. The system positions the primer beneath the shell holder as the ram reaches the bottom of its stroke.

To prime a case, the reloader moves the priming arm forward at the bottom of the ram stroke. In addition, a heavy steel shield surrounds the primer tubes.

The shield adds protection around the primer tubes. Therefore, Lyman requires the user to keep the blast shield in position when operating the priming system.

The straight-line design also keeps the priming operation integrated into the press. As a result, the reloader can prime cases without using a separate hand priming tool.

Lyman Brass Smith Victory Press for Rifle Reloading

The Lyman Brass Smith Victory Single Stage Reloading Press suits reloaders who prefer to process each case through one operation at a time. Each press stroke performs a single loading operation, so the user can inspect the case before moving to the next stage.

The rigid O-frame and large ram provide a solid platform for full-length sizing, neck sizing, bullet seating and other rifle-reloading operations. In addition, the 5-inch frame opening provides useful clearance for large rifle cases.

For precision rifle work, a single-stage press allows the reloader to follow a deliberate loading process. Therefore, the Victory Press provides good control when repeatability and careful case preparation matter.

The press accepts standard 7/8″-14 dies and standard shell holders. However, cartridge-specific dies and shell holders remain separate components, so the reloader must select the correct equipment for the cartridge.

Lyman Brass Smith Victory Press Operation

The Victory Press uses a compound linkage between the operating handle and ram. As the handle moves through its stroke, the linkage provides the leverage required for common sizing and seating operations.

The 1-inch diameter ram provides a substantial working platform. Furthermore, the precision-fit linkage helps give the press a smooth operating feel.

The handle can operate from either side of the press. As a result, reloaders can position the handle to suit their preferred bench layout.

At 18.1 pounds, the Victory Press has considerable mass for a single-stage press. Therefore, the user should mount it securely to a strong and stable reloading bench.

Lyman Brass Smith Victory Press Features

The Lyman Brass Smith Victory Single Stage Reloading Press combines heavy-duty construction with a large working area and integrated priming system. In particular, the 5-inch frame opening and 1-inch ram make it suitable for larger rifle cartridges.

The straight-line primer feed also provides an integrated priming option. Meanwhile, the reversible handle allows either right- or left-hand operation.

For reloaders who use different cartridges, the standard 7/8″-14 die thread provides broad die compatibility. In addition, the large frame opening gives useful clearance when working with longer and larger cases.

As a result, the Victory Press provides a solid single-stage platform for reloaders who want controlled operation and substantial press construction.
