That way trumps the 1 1/2 hours I spent in physical therapy this morning........:(

I have to agree.........that about does it for for their traditional target customers, but there's always an exception or two! There's more than a few of us who much prefer to use electric collators rather than 4 or 5-tube tube feeders. It's a shame Lee doesn't want to get in the electric...

If it's anything like the 650 manual, he may need another year before he finishes that tome and actually uses the press.;) The RCBS Pro 2000 manual was maybe a 1/4 of the Dillon manual.....but it was enough. The Pro Chucker manual? Can't recall.....must not have read it....at all. :uhoh: The...

You don't have to design your own stuff...... This is Tyler R's stuff which is free...... Like this 9mm case collator in test mode going way faster than I use it when loading..... A little slower feeding into the Lee 6000...... Below...my first test on the 6000 making the very first 9mm round...

For me progressives were the last option......was about to give it all up due to arthritis pain......just too many strokes on my Rock Chucker. But multitasking for me had to be simplified, and my setup was not simple. Feeders are the answer to finally get there, and Lee's tube and shaker ones...

Hi Ed! Nice to "hear" your voice! :) Ed is one of the guys who got me hooked on 3D printing, and he had more than a little to do with making the plate maker tool Ammo Mike created to work so well in TylerR's project in the CastBoolits 3d collator thread. A real whiz programmer in OpenScad...

Perfect example of the difference between us and the apes. We analyze and test......repeat.....until we succeed in improving our tools and thus our lives every day. A few collage campuses this week has me worried that some are reverting back. ;) Congratulations on your success! The press...

Well.......the guy in the Plymouth Fury didn't believe me.

That's certainly true......I've only restored one car.....a midnight blue 67 Mustang GT 390 4 speed........for my twin teen-age daughters. It was a way pricier endeavor than I expected. Nor did I count on attracting teen-age boys even more than they already did, being pretty blonds like their...

You don't have to have a Cobra or a Corvette or a European exotic to get in trouble......I managed it plenty of time in my '68 GTO. Heck I managed it the first week I had a license in my Mom's big Buick box.......and my first car, a '53 Ford flat head that ran faster in reverse than in drive, I...

I was born unlucky I guess........timing was amazingly wrong when I bought my first and only Chrono. Even bought a nice case for it........ pe Fit was perfect! Next day, the Radar units were introduced! Boy that took the wind out of my sails.....lost my interest immediately.......I decided...

I started in the progressive club, the December after Obama was elected the first term.....it was a manual indexing Pro 2000. But I did so ONLY because there was a run on the auto advance version of that press and they were out of stock everywhere......but I was able to also order the...

....... but is it smooth!), and now a Lee 6000, which with their new updated advance rod also is very smooth. I'd love to try the esoteric Dillon 10**, and the Lyman Marks. but I'm not willing to go into debt. Singles? Most are fine, 6 of one sort of thing.....as long as you don't buy the...

@AJC1: I can imagine that's so. My Lee 6000 was ordered as a 9mm kit, which is why I had the 9mm shellplate (all that was in stock that day). But I immediately started working on feeders. This video is the very first finished loaded 9mm round on the new press and already using feeder mods. I...

I used a single for many, many years.....then it started hurting......we all get old eventually. :) So when it started hurting (arthritis, and other things, I decided it was either find a hobby for old people or buy a progressive. I chose to reload easier...... Take that 300 rounds per month...

I used to have fits with concentricity issues, using expanders, and even bushing sizers. I found simplification by just by buying RCBS's tube Rifle bullet feeders for both .223 and .308 which come with "M" style neck expander dies too.......then I could use a regular RCBS sizer with the...

I've never even owned a 9mm...preferring .357's, .40's and .45's. But 2 of my Grand Sons have them and asked me to help them work up a load for them for 124g RN Berrys plated bullets. We ended up and was very pleased with 5.2 grains of Unique. Unique's new formulation no longer burns dirty...

I had bought the slow twist station advance rod back in December, but never got around to trying it. Thought I'd give people a heads up to a possible snafu with it. Hopefully mine is the only one that is slightly oversize in the width at the el end. It would not drop fully into the groove at...

I haven't seen the spring binding problem yet, but I had to find a one inch longer spring for my APP modded RCBS Summit. And found a "flex" problem with it pushing the longer spring. That was solved well with a thinwall rigid clear tube that I just slid over the spring.....worked better than an...

Ha.....that reminded me of an experience as an 8 year-old. My uncle was an B29 pilot, then an airline pilot instructor. He flew in with a couple of students to eat lunch into our little town. Came to the house and ate....took me to the airport for some "flying lessons". We got a few thousand...
