I could listen to reloading noises all day

Why the rush? I weight EVERY powder drop and lead drop. I take pride in my ammo. Never had a misfire or any cycling issues. Lee Load All 2 all the way.

Well, you know, I can reload a box of once-fired high brass in under 30 minutes on my Load All II -- but then a) the high brass almost always needs a little help coming out of the sizing ring, and b) I'm still new at this. I have no doubt once I get everything nailed down I'll get it to only five times what it's taking you. And I spent $70 in 2023. What did that 9000 cost you -- was it as low as $700 three years ago (it's close to a grand now)? if you shoot a couple rounds of skeet or trap every day, that press is still overkill. But no, I wouldn't turn one down if it offered me as a gift... ;)

Did you say you had a foot pedal for reloading your 9000e is that an accessory you can buy for that?

@2fas4uSTI 3 жыл бұрын

An aftermarket guy sells the foot pedal. MEC will not because they claim the buttons keep your hands away from the press while it is moving....

what wads are you using ?

@chestercox2564 3 жыл бұрын

I also reload Rio. Looks like Claybuster CB6100. That’s what I use, they work well with one ounce of #7.5. Rios are a straight wall hull so you have to use a wad made for Federal or any straight wall hull.

What happens if the wad doesn’t stay on the wad ram?

@briannemec9214 3 жыл бұрын

Since no one answered you. The wad is slid on the ram at an angle. The wad can slide down and will sit on the wad guide holder. The gap between the ram and the holder is less than the height of the wad, so it cannot fall off.

@@michal.abramowicz I lucked out and got the press for free. Lead here’s is $42 bag, primers are $0.06, powder still tough to get . 25 packs are $9,00 to $12 here now. Still worthwhile to load my own. Hopefully things start to open up soon.
