BULLET SEATING

The Summit

 Reloading Press design is great for seating of bullets in the cartridge 

case. The open frame design allows excellent accessibility. The optional Short Handle, 

#09291, and ability to tighten the linkage to reduce the press stroke greatly aids in 

seating bullets in cartridge cases. To tighten the linkage, insert a 3/16” hex key wrench 

into the broached end of the toggle pin. Using a 9/16” open end wrench, slightly turn 

the nyloc nut on the toggle pin from back to forward. See photos 9 and 10. 

Do not over-tighten the nut. Tighten the linkage just enough to allow the handle to stop 

where desired in the stroke length. See Photo 11. 

Bullet seating is greatly enhanced with use of the Gold Medal Seat Die (sold separately). 

See Photo 12.

The Gold Medal Seat Die has a bullet retaining system that holds the bullet to free your 

hands for seating. See Photo 13.

PRIMING

The Summit Reloading Press does not provide an in-press priming system. RCBS

®

 

recommends using dedicated Priming Tools to accomplish this task. 

MAINTENANCE

This press was lubricated at the factory. However, it is necessary to lubricate all moving 

parts from time to time with gun oil. A zerk fitting has been installed on the right side 

of the Die Plate to lubricate the Die Plate/ Ram interface. If rust spots appear, swab 

lightly with gun oil and wipe dry. Care should be taken not to apply oil where it could 

come in contact with primer pockets or primers. Oil will deactivate primers. It is a good 

practice to clean the press prior to lubrication to remove grit and other residue. Note 

the ease with which the epoxy enamel paint wipes clean. This finish is impervious to 

oil and is extremely chip and fade resistant. RCBS also sells a Press Maintenance Kit, 

#99971, to accomplish this task.
