Re: Competition for Chargemaster
My issue with it will be that the company is out of Italy. How will they handle fixes and issues? RCBS is quick and above average service. It would be an expensive piece to have die on you 6 months into use....and while you could ship it to Italy, that would be cost prohibitive I'd imagine.

As Jason said.
RCBS has great customer service. I broke my Chargemaster and they had me a replacement within a week after they received mine.
No longer using a Chargemaster but still using an RCBS powder thrower connected to a box with a green light .

Re: Competition for Chargemaster
The company is actually in Switzerland AFAICS. Not that changes much as far as distance, unless they have a good distributor in the USA to buffer the service costs.

Re: Competition for Chargemaster
This looks a LOT like the RCBS Chargemaster, right down to the calibration weights. On the other hand, it is a very ugly shade of yellow.

Re: Competition for Chargemaster
That particular shade of yellow is called "red". You must be talking about the "Iso" dispenser. Yeah, not my taste either.

So much for loading rifle cartridges. Would work well for rimfire, I guess.
