I keep watching this video and man, im sure glad I started with just manual !!

I could be wrong but I think your problem with seating the larger bullets is because you flared the case. I have loaded the same ones with the horned die on a xl750 and seated just fine. Try not flaring and see if it helps.

I wonder if he has DBK tattooed somewhere on him. 😂

How is the gas blow back with the suppressor?

For someone who has never reloaded before, You sir, made a DAMN FINE video! Maybe once we've loaded for decades, we forget how to evaluate reloading. Yes, someone who has reloaded for years may be able to troubleshoot these problems quickly, but thanks for making a great video!! I've been looking at these reloaders or automating my 650XL, this give me some great insight.

I can load 9mm for 1/2. Not all the sensors are great

Your Video is the best I’ve found giving lots of details on the auto mark7 . I’ve been in the fence on automating my xl750 or getting into mark7 machines . I don’t think I’ll be buying a mark 7 . Maybe the Genesis machine will be worth it

I've heard that no reloading room is complete without a cat to supervise.

Damn, if i was loaded with enough cash to buy this press, i would just buy ammo or hire a reloader to load rounds for you,

This may be dumb and I’m not sure if frankly held us posted but you mentioned air pressure having a bullet of stuck and if you drill a tiny hole in the stem above where the bullet is, maybe it’s causing a vacuum suction in there

*9:18** Took 7 minutes to swap calibers? Ouch.* *_I haven't seen a really perfect customer for this unit._* _Somewhere right before 'about to buy an ammo plant'??_

I load those same bullets using an RL1100 Dillon dies….Dillon drive. Using cci and 1680 also

This almost like my setup this is the best camera I owned at this price point

I think a possibility is your neck is being overly sized or the flaring die is flaring too much

Thanks for the very thorough video. I've been loading for decades, and have used various presses. I just sold a RCBS T-7 and now use a Dillon RL550B and a Forster Co-Ax (for my precision rifle rounds). I have been waiting a long time for the Mark 7 Genesis to become available, but after what seems like an eternity, they are still working on the software, so at this point I am considering the APEX 10. Like yourself, I have to ask myself, "Do I really need this, or just want this". Truth be said, it's more of a want than need. I certainly don't shoot enough 9mm, 40 S&W, or 45 ACP to justify the purchase, but that sort of justification seldom carries much weight in my thought process. Thanks again for the insight and experience.

I would suggest for small batches of unique loads such as what you are describing here to simplify things a bit. Step away from the automated progressive press and use a single stage press or a turret press. You already identified that you can purchase a special seating stem for specific bullets. Many die manufacturing companies can grind specific stems for their dies. I would suggest lubricating your brass your brass especially for progressive reloading machines. You will have much greater control of the seating with a single stage press and I would suggest crimping the bullets with a Lee factory crimp die so you don’t have problems in your AR type semi-auto. I use both a progressive press and a single stage. My work up loads and small batch loads are what I use the single stage for. You have some of the best progressive reloading equipment on the market. I would use it for larger batches and more standardized loading and brass prep, such as sizing and trimming. I’ve also found that cleaned lubricated brass works much better in the progressive press. I normally pouch the primers out then wet tumble the brass. Primming just works much smoother on my progressive press with clean primer pockets. After I punch the primers and wet tumble I dry the brass and lubricate it with Dillon lube or Hornady One Shot. I then size and trim the brass. After that I tumble it in my Dillon dry tumbler with corn cob media and Dillon Rapid shine. Now I’m ready to load either on the single stage press or my Dillon 650. Since I’m not punching primers or resizing the progressive press really runs smooth without hardly any problems. I hope this helps.

Interesting video. Several of your comments about your journey mirrored my own. I also knew zip when I decided to get into reloading. Your comment that you can make so much ammo that you don't need to run the machine that often - and you start loosing your edge with it. Same here - I had not used it in close to 6 years and essentially felt like starting over. I have a Dillon 1050 and I recognized a lot of similarity as you was breaking your down. Your Mark 7 is like a very hi-tech version of the 1050 - thought I bet the Mark 7 was designed from the ground up to be hi-tech. I bet it is a challenge to get everything dialed in to the point where it really runs well - the learning curve on that had to be painful.

You would benefit from some FW dies for your processing

Never tried the 225gr but I am using Hornady dies with hitek coated 220gr bullets and using the stem that is meant for round nose or poly tipped bullets I have no problem. I am however using H110 which will have way less case fill. Maybe you're compressing the powder and that's also causing the bullet to jam up in the die?

That wire on that bullet feeder really is something 😂

Thank you! I'll stay with my Dillon 650

very clean setup!

This video is so valuable. It's so hard to find a fair appraisal of the product. Thank you!

Just got my FX6 and working on figuring out the monitor situation. My rig has the Bright Tangerine AXL on it so I can’t use the Nicyrig mount. I’m still digging the internet for the right parts.

Honest review, pricewise, you also have to account for labor cost, youre own, when comparing factory ammo prices versus reload, reduces youre profit margin a bit more, not as much as reloading by hand. ROI, It all comes down to caliber and ammo usage i think.

Seems like a pain to have to break that down like that to get in the case ?

Well done, thanks for making this comprehensive look at the MK 7.

*Came here from Moondog. Thanks for letting him borrow your gun. I'm working on a project and this is good info.*

Just came over from the Moondog stream. Great stuff!

Nice!

He's tanking the recoil of the barret like a pro.

More videos!

God bless you, sir, we need these at the southern border

What the fuck is that an early anti-tank guided missile???

That's what the space force is for, protecting our technology/ Internet

Was expecting this to be one of those lame “history” videos with bad animation and a British guy voice over. That algorithm has blest this random channel 😂

Think they actually used to make these in my hometown back in the day.

Nice , now i want one

Finally, I have been looking for a solution from the lizard in black 5g radiowave mind controllers!!! Also I thought this video had WAY more views, I was shocked to only see 483. This is the type of video to have millions of views and be randomly on your recommended page years later.

Pretty impressive 😊

Upvoted!

Im with Vlad anyway, for reasons. But oh boy SACLOS for home defence sounds like sweet sweet music. Edit: is that Soviet? Looked it up, its also a fully manual MACLOS , nice . A step closer to Citizen machine guns .

Real question is how the fuck is this legal considering how corrupt the ATF is.

This is amazing. I feel privileged to be one of those 294 views.

bro really just said that if the robber won't die, then he'll be incinerated.

I thought this video wayyyyy older that one day

This is the exact video i needed

i love thiss soo muchhhhh

This is so sick!! Loved it!

How the hell did i get here
