Rock Chucker Supreme or Redding Big Boss?

I want a very strong single stage press and it is between these two. I've heard the RC Supremem has alot of issues with the primer catcher but is a good press. Have heard no negatives and actually not much at all about the Redding Big Boss. Anyone have a vote on the matter?

    I own a Rock Chucker Supreme. I have never used the Primer option that come with it because i use a hand primer for that. Its a good press. Never had any problems with it. One the other hand I also have used the Redding BigBoss. I think that it was built a little sturdier than the RCBS Rock Chucker. They both cost about the same. If i were to buy another press i would get the Redding. Big Boss or the Big Boss 2. Good luck.

    Oh im a dork. Primer catcher. Yes its crap. Whem im decapping my primers they go all over. Plus the catch tray is kinda hard to get off. gotta give it a little musscle then primers go all over. Go redding.

    lets throw the Lee Classic Cast in there as well. Hear it is tough as nails and catches all spent primers too. At about half the cost.

    Primers a hassle? Love my Bonanza Coax.

    I like my RCBS RC very much. I have 5 presses set up and they all leave primers on the floor, although I don't have a Redding.
    (1) RCBS RC-single,(2) Lee-singles, and (2)Dillon progressives.

    You couldn't go wrong with either RCBS or Redding. They are both top notch presses and will outlast you. I have 5 presses at present----1 RCBS Rockchucker, 1 C-H C press, 1 C-H 3 station H press, 1 Dillon Square Deal, 1 Dillon 550B.
