At first glance, the Omega 800 Reloading Press may seem to lack features. However, this sturdy single stage press is made of robust cast steel and comes with no additional accessories, not even a shell holder.
The matte black finish effectively hides any roughness in the out-of-the-box finish. The design is similar to other 'O' frame presses, like the popular Lee Breech Lock Challenger Press, with nearly identical bolt holes. The unit operates smoothly and is easy to set up, with a lever arm that attaches to a rough cast clamping arm.
The ram is made of solid billet steel and features a spent primer port that simply lets spent primers fall to the ground or into a bucket if carefully placed. Standard shell holders and dies, such as the Lee, can be used with this press. While there is some play in the linkages, it does not significantly affect the press's functionality, although it may be a concern for those seeking precise results.
