Video snapshots of my loading process for 5.56mm rifle cartridges. My goal was to reload 10,000 rounds of pre-sorted once fired brass and maintain Handloaded tollerances. Despite the reloading speed, almost all measured .000 inch bullet runout with .0025 - .003 inch neck tension. All necks were trimmed to the same length. This process has created better consistancy and quality than I have been able to buy commercially including XM-193.

  • Breaks any stuck media free and turns the cases to neck up position so they can be removed in one orientation by the handful. They are then inverted and vibrated against the tumbler to remove any media. Review the video and look at the process.

  • that was freaking awesome! that looks like an awesome set up! its like the Willy Wonka Factory but For Men and Making Bullets instead. thats alot of gadgets you have there! thanks for sharing! by the way what tv show were you watching?

  • Very cool 

  • Nice setup and working order. I surprised you dont have the unique tek primer down tube that goes to a bucket. Why mess with the little cup that sends primers all over?

  • whoaa. Efficient!

  • I just started reloading on a Lee turret press. I'm trying to find the right formula. With my 1:7 twist 16" barrel the best I can get is 2 moa at 100 yards. I tried target, bcl 2, and imr 8208 xbr. What type of accuracy do you get? Do you use a scope if so what power? Also, my second problem is metering consistently. Any non ball powder throw it off by .5 grain or more. Where did you get your bullets? Looks like 55gr fmj?

  • @madriverarms

    I'm not 100% sure, but they it looked like a dillon separator and a dillon tumbler.

  • You are my hero, that my friend was awesome.

  • Whoa great vid!!

  • Def a nice case-neck trimmer.

  • @madriverarms Looks like a Dillon tumbler, walnut media. Truthfully, tumblers really aren't that special.
