    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    So was this complicated to get set up and running? Why do you need the V3 stuff if you are manually dropping? Why wouldn't it just be the trickler software?

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    This looks truly amazing! So will IP sell all those things listed separate for the trickler? I am confused about the AT V3 electronics if you are using a manual drop. Is this not included with the trickler purchase?

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    This is interesting to me as my old chargemasters do not drift when I run them together. Maybe they are not accurate enough to see the drift.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Can you explain your manual drop method? Because your process may be something to consider for me. I also wonder If I got the FX scale and IP trickler, do they "communicate" to stop at the designated charge? I am envisioning something like a manual drop, let the IP finalize, fill case and drop...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    So to add another question to the mix. What about 2 RCBS Matchmasters running together? Compared to the others with a discount it would be about the same cost wise as the AT V4.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    It is an interesting concept. Get the FX 120i for scale, manual drop for bulk drop and IP trickler to finish a charge.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    I was wondering this same thing! Either chargemaster or even a manual drop and IP trickler or any other trickler. I suspect that could be a very fast system and accurate.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Thank you and all the others for all the valuable information! I suppose it is all a process and speeding up anything with all you discussed are things I am on the track of. I do things in bulk and have things ready between all of the stages (cleaning, annealing every time, sizing, Giraud...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Fair enough. I realize precision mode is what all of these tricklers are about. I am simply trying to see if I can get a speed jump over my current process as much as I am shooting now.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    I honestly thought about doing the same with the Matchmaster and wait for the IP. I get new product releases never being on time. A buddy has a Matchmaster he will let me try out which may not be a bad thing to try. So have you used your Matchmaster in "speed mode" or whatever its callled? How...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Yeah, I shoot multiple calibers per week. Anything from 2.23/5.56 (not reloading for currently), .308, 6.5Creed, 6.5 PRC and 6GT at the moment. It has become hard to keep up. I am not against 2 of anything if I can spend less time loading and more time shooting...or fishing lol. But at the...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    I realize many are going for accuracy of charge vs speed and I totally respect that. After load development for me it just seems I am trying to find way to spend less time reloading as I am shooting 3 times a week at times and it is hard to keep up lol!

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Do you know why so many like the V3 over the V4? I'm sure I can search here but since it relates to you comment I thought I would ask.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Interesting information for sure! I'm sure you have read about them but I recently switched to some matchmaster dies as that was all that was available at the time for my 6GT. I love the "window" so much for seating that I now get the seating die for other calibers. Crazy how fast I can seat 50...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    So I am just curious, using your process how many loads do you think you can charge and seat per hour? I have also researched all that you have mentioned as different alternatives. Anything is a consideration for sure.

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Same here. I have found that removing 2 kernels for 0.1gr and 4 kernels for 0.2gr is spot on most all the time with H4350! Still slows the process but running 2 CM I can do about 110-120 per hour which includes seating. Just loading for so many calibers now anything to speed the process is...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    So I am just curious. When you are talking overthrows, are you talking about numbers taking you out of the 0.01gr area or something so bad to take you out of a 0.1gr area? I have read everything about the IP trickler but the updates seem to have stalled, and I bet there are many pre-orders that...

    Question about higher end trickler systems vs Chargemasters

    Hello all. I have been reading quite about about the 2 main contenders (Autotrickler V4 and Supertrickler). I currently load for multiple calibers and build my loads to 0.1gr charges. Once a load is developed, I run loading sessions typically 100-200 per batch. I am using 2 chargemasters at the...

    MDT send it level question

    Just to follow up. I called MDT and they had never heard of this problem. He recommended exactly what you did, as well as replacing the battery just in case. I removed the battery and contact seemed nice and tight. Replaced and shot today with absolutely no failures. Who knows! But it seemed to...
