That is stupid cool!

It makes me wonder how long it will be until someone has a fully automated press available straight out of the box.

The funny part is they have all that money tied up in the press and are using lead bullets :roflol: I wonder if it has a bigger primer tube?

The real trick here is having the imagination to dream up the mechanics and the skill (and tool) to put them to use. I'm not bad at the former but suck at the latter.

When you have no imagination and no skill you have to pay the person that has both of those.

That's such a cool contraption.

I'm not impressed. The mechanical part is straightforward machine design. The real problem to running a progressive reloading machine is watching, listening and feeling for problems. This machine will not do that. I'll bet when it jams it is a heck of a mess. I'll stick with manual.

I wonder how he gets the primers lined up consistently.  On mine about 1 in 20 takes a little tweak to get the shell plate lined up so the primer will seat properly.



That is pretty amazing.

Pretty slow though - 177 rounds in 43 minutes. Still, it's impressive engineering.

Yes, I was thinking this too initially, but advancement is progressive. I would consider someone capable of getting to this level would/could eventually upgrade to a faster cycle time.

Now he just needs an automatic primer buying device that knows when stores get them in stock.

You don't already have one of those? You are behind the times. No wonder you guys can't get primers. :roflol:
