I like reloading gadgets as much as anyone but if I ever get this carried away will one of you just shoot me.

This is in no way a dis to the guy who developed this, it's very clever and he demonstrates it works, but I just think it is a bit overboard.

I have no clue, but it's possible that he is an engineer student and this was a senior project.

The biggest thing is the way he set up the control board with multiple fault alarms. I can't imagine any normal DIYer putting that kind of detail into the setup.

I fell asleep just watching the thing size 20 cases.

 

[jerkface11]

Wow it would probably be cheaper to hire someone to size them for you.

 

[flashhole]

That's along the lines of what I was thinking too ... how much do you think something like that would cost? I thought the control panel was ... special.

 

[armoredman]

Glad he had fun building that. I'll stick with my single stage. That was really slow...

All this just to run a GRX die that many handloaders believe is a total waist of time in the first place.

Yeah, all that just to remove a bulge that presents no real problem to start with.

I gotta say though that I went to extremes to control my lead temps on my casting outfit. It's called a PID. I can't say my set-up is as well done/slick as his, but it works.

 

[Walkalong]

Very slick. I'll just keep doing it the old fashioned way though.

 

[Bello]

lol it is a very boring thing but engineers can do amazing ****! and ya its overboard

 

[Dirtdgger]

I would rather watch paint dry! I will keep doin it the old way pull the handle.

 

[EddieNFL]

Neat, but it can't keep up with the 650's production rate.

 

[Caliper_Mi]

Next step after that is to set up a table at the gunshow (to make back the cost!). With all the fault detection, you could pour in a bunch of components and have alot of ammo made by lunchtime while reading the Highroad!

It is not a waste of time if you load much .40 S&W/10MM and want your loads to function well+look good too..My 2c. only..Bill.
