RCBS 87472 Partner Reloading Kit-2 Multi-Caliber Reloading System

The RCBS Partner Reloading Kit-2 is a multi-caliber reloading system built for shooters ready to take control of their ammunition costs and performance. This complete starter package pairs the durable Partner Press—a versatile, easy-to-operate machine with a 4-inch operating window—with all the essential tools and accessories you need to begin handloading. Whether you're a new reloader setting up your first bench or an experienced shooter looking for a portable, lightweight solution you can use at the range, the Partner Kit-2 delivers solid functionality without unnecessary complexity.

The Partner Press itself is compact and portable, designed to handle multiple calibers so you're not locked into a single cartridge. That flexibility, combined with the kit's complete component set, means you can start reloading various rounds once you have the press set up for each caliber. The included 1500-grain digital pocket scale lets you measure powder charges with confidence, while the Speer #15 Reloading Manual provides the guidance you need to load safely and accurately across different cartridges and powder types.

Rounding out the kit are the practical bench and range tools that make the reloading process smoother: an accessory handle with both primer pocket and case neck brushes for prep work, a powder funnel to eliminate spills, a case loading block and primer tray for organization, a deburring tool for case mouth finishing, a fold-up hex key set for press maintenance, and a bottle of Case Slick spray lube to keep cases moving smoothly. This mix of essentials gets you from raw brass to finished ammunition without forcing you to hunt down tools separately.

Note that the accessory base plate is not included with this kit, so confirm your press setup before ordering if you plan to mount accessories beyond the core reloading function.
