Deer season is coming and it seems like a good time to clean out the safe of something I have not shot for quite a while. As the title says, Outfitter G2 in .357 Magnum. It is the package model that includes a gun case and 3-9x40 scope with rings and all that. It is a good rifle, extremely...
I don't know? Can you? Do you think it is going to make any difference if you type in all caps or bold or something else? Different people have different priorities than you do. Deal with it.
That was actually my thread. And it wasn't one phone call, it was one email. :) They also have yet to ship the parts. But anyway.
I have had issues with Frankford Arsenal/Battenfeld Technologies products before. They were resolved just as speedily. I had an issue with my Intellidropper...
I also like to support American made products, but I am also in the "Sometimes price wins" camp.
I also think it is important to keep in mind that they are not "ripping off" the Co-Ax. Those patents are expired. Now anyone can produce designs using those elements and that is a good thing...
It has been done. Sort of. At least in regards to how it matters for reloading:

Ultimate Shill...
Seems I need to work on my turret press technique.
For another data point I loaded some ammo on my 550 while waiting on parts for the LnL. I was running pretty much exactly 15 minutes per 100 rounds and that was across 9mm, .40 and .45ACP, all ran around the same amount of time.
Meh. That particular ammo sells for ~$25/box. The crate includes 4 boxes. So if one were inclined to purchase that ammo you're getting the crate for about $30.
On the other hand, if you bought that and then shot the ammo you're ruining the collector potential for it in the future, so it's...
It all depends on what a person is loading.
Sometimes you want to spend some time listening to an audiobook or an interesting commentator while taking your time loading some precision, experimental or special purpose rounds.
Sometimes you want to load bulk rounds for plinking or competition...
Have you ever actually timed that, or is that a seats of the pants sort of guesstimate? I ask because I actually timed that and I was not wasting any time as I was loading. I'm not saying that gains could not be made, but I wasn't exactly letting grass grow under my press either.
Oh, and with the LnL I said I started with an empty primer tube but forgot to mention that I used a Frankford Arsenal vibratory primer filler and not a primer flip tray.

The price has dropped significantly on the Forster Co-Ax clone. They were $250-$300 about a year ago.
