Some people report good results with this press for closing case backs. Many start with this low cost product and later move up to one of the better closers or crystal presses. This is a strange product that some people love and others hate. Some say it works about 80% of the time, while we have one customer who has high school students change 2,500 batteries a month and he loves this product even if he might have to buy a new press or repair the handle once each year. I say if you can afford a better tool you should buy a better tool.
