Found this the other day. Looks interesting. But worth the price.

Not for that kind of money. Ouch! That's more than I paid for my entire starter kit.

I used to load all my .45 on a single stage press and it took approx. an hour for 50 rounds. My RCBS pro2000 is plenty fast enough for me. I also don't like that it limits you to jacketed only.

That's more than I paided for my Dillon press.

they can be had for ~ $375ish. it isn't worthwhile for me because they claim non-jacketed bullets wont run properly...and i run lead for everything except 9mm.

I have heard that these bullet feeders have reliability problems and require excessive belling of the cases to ease the problem. I have gone the other way, a case feeder for my 550. I think case feeders are more reliable.

Wow. I wouldn't touch it at that price. I can't imagine how they justify such a price. There isn't that much material or technology in the dang thing.

I'm not buying this. Never planed too. I actually enjoy manually putting my bullets on the brass. more or less i was showing what was out there. even though it cost more than my press and them some.
