    Well made and sturdy reloading tools and accessories. I grew up using them. Still marketed into the late 60's as I see here in my 7th edition of the handloaders digest. They resembled brands we know today and may well be original designs. There were a few different metallic presses that resembled the old Lymans, Texan's , and Herters. Their powder measures looked like the hornady's and Pacific's of today. I still have a small powder scale by them. Their shotshell presses looked like the Pacific's & Hornady's of today.

    good presses as said above the bair was the original all others are copies or were derived from a bair weather it a hornady/pacific or a lyman

    I believe pacific bought the bair design and made it there own

    lyman may have done the same
