Frankford Arsenal X-10 Progressive Press with Case Activated Powder Measure
Frankford Arsenal
The Frankford Arsenal X-10 Progressive Press with Case Feeder is a 10-station automatic progressive reloading press built from the ground up for high-volume ammunition production. If you're serious about reloading rifle and pistol cartridges—from 9mm up to .308—and you want to spend less time at the bench and more time shooting, the X-10 delivers the speed and reliability that experienced reloaders demand. The press ships with a case feeder included, so you're ready to load out of the box.
Built with a steel frame, precision ball bearings, and a gear-driven rotating shell plate, the X-10 is engineered to run smooth and fast while keeping powder where it belongs—in the measure, not on your bench. The dual de-capping stations prevent primer drawback, and on-press primer pocket swaging handles both small and large primers in a single pass, which is a genuine convenience when working with military brass. The case-actuated powder measure features a positive reset that all but eliminates the risk of a squib load, giving you confidence in every round. You also get an integrated LED light in the tool head—a feature unique to Frankford Arsenal presses—so you can see exactly what's happening at each station.
Switching calibers is straightforward: the tool head and shell plate swap quickly without unnecessary fiddling. The roller handle and spring-loaded case locator buttons are the kind of thoughtful details that make long sessions less fatiguing. The X-10 accommodates powder check and case trimming dies as well, so your die selection isn't limited. Keep in mind that the Bullet Collator and caliber conversion kits are sold separately; pair them with the base press for an even smoother one-handed workflow.
