HighDesertWolf: Dont' know where you got the press, but it's not an RCBS. Maybe a nock-off that looks like an RCBS. Check out the response from the people AT RCBS:
Thank you for contacting RCBS with your concern. Most of our products
are still produced right here in our factory in Oroville CA. However,
we do purchase some items from China or other countries around the
world. Any items we source outside of our operation are closely
monitored to insure they meet our quality expectations. The only reason
we choose certain items to be produced over seas is to provide our
customers with the best possible products for the lowest possible cost,
or in other words, to give you the best value for your hard earned
dollars. None of our presses have "made in China" stamped on them, as they are made here in the USA.
when I was out buiyng my new press I ran into a buddy of mine he saw me in line with the chucker supreme press and ask me if I really wanted to buy that I replied ofcourse I do. he then began explaining to me that the castings of the frame and linkage were casted in china and then shipped back here for final fitting and finishing, maybe in RCBS's mind thats still good enough to call it made in the USA. Anyhow I looked online and did a google search to see what I could find after calling RCBS and yes I got the same neutral response you guys did and I figured well what the heck if they are trying to pull one they arent gonna openly admit anything after doing a google search for awhile I finally came across a review that was posted on midwayusa for the chucker supreme press. now this was cut and pasted from midways review on the press. heres a link if you want to read the reviews yourself.

Review:
I recently read a magazine article on the RCBS Supreme. By and large RCBS manufactures a superior product. Unfortunately when I read that RCBS uses import casting of the frame from China I became quite disappointed. I am in the market for a new single stage cast iron framed, heavy duty American made press. I thought the Rock Chucker Supreme was it. It would have been if it were made here.
if this isnt true... now why would midwayusa go ahead and let this post through their screening process if it werent?? if it werent true I think midwayusa would be in for a possible slander lawsuit but even after midways screening process they still let this post go through so you know what I have this strong gut feeling telling me it is true.
PLEASE!! prove me wrong by all means I would like somebody to tell me otherwise and prove me wrong. I dont particulary care much to have the redding big boss I dont like the primer catch system I would like it very much to be proven wrong and I will take the redding back and get a chucker supreme and my 30 bucks back.
