gotta love it, still making adjustments..... should make processing 223 brass way faster
niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice
Just getting lazy now
Speed it up, I can still see it. When it 'disappears' then you're going fast enough!

Damn...... I want one.....
Tuned a little faster with the Mark Seven powder check die sensor....this beats the dillon one hands down. It comes with more sensitive range rods as well as both small and large rods for both pistol and rifle calibers
24/ 7 bullet manufacturing while you watch a movie what's not to love about this .... very nice indeed .
What's the total cost to get all that up and running? Very cool.
about $2k to automate your press.... assuming you have a 650 or 1050. sensors are optional, and cost a fair amount as well about $200-$350 each.
the swage sensor has yet to be set up (have it) - tomorrow night
i can say i have never enjoyed reloading as much as tonight seeing it all work without a hicup and not even touching it.

Nice setup.
You do realize that the next step up is a Camdex...
A good operator can run three machines at a time and produce over 4k per hour, per machine.
It gets tiring and two is much easier.
They start around 20k

doesn’t mark 7 make the evolution as an intermediate step between automated 1050s and camdex...... camdex would be awesome..... just out of price range especially when they are new.
Would be anxious to see if you get good Precision rifle ammo out of it.
the challenge with precision ammo has always been the powder thrower. i can be be off +\- 0.2 based on taking 100 charges and measuring. and i have not metered varget either through it.
Hmmm...it'd be a real bitch making, but I wonder if powder could be dropped more accurately like the big manufacturers; via volume and vibration. I'm thinking a rotary disk with cups (almost like a shotgun reloading charge bar, but round), so that the cup could pass under the powder column several times before being dropped. Each indexing of the rotary cup would cause the powder to settle more uniformly.
Just thinking out loud here...
And it goes without saying....that's an AWESOME set up!

Pretty darn sweet!
You're gonna have to turn it up a bit though... I can process 223 brass with the standard Dillon 1050 at around 2000 cases/hour (if I don't get tired first lol).
