Best explanation I have seen on TH-cam

Great explanation. It is always better to have a full understanding of how things work.

Very effective video, I learned a lot. Still glad that we use metric though 😊

your comparator is not measuring off the same position of the bullet ogive as the seater stem. Nor are the all the bullets you are loading compared the same.

John, I have a RPR .22lr, not the best choice, but I am trying narrow down the type of rimfire ammo that will suit. Have you lot tested on a RPR and if you have, what was your conclusion. I am just trying to establish buying a new match barrel or keep trying the ammo. I look forward to your response.

Show us a Video of your CZ457 Criterion Barrel in action

You guys tested my rifle a few months ago. It was interesting. Great information here.

Very interesting, thank you for posting.

I picked up 3 of these from Hirsch precision in Canada , this is a must have piece of equipment for sizing brass , billion dollar idea !! ❤

Hi John, I bought these awhile back and watching this longer video it makes better sense. Now I am comfortable setting them up for use. I’m not obtuse I just didn’t fully grasp the idea. Now I do. Thanks take care.

Good job buddy

Thank you for being a stand up guy and an honest business man by allowing those of us that bought the traditional Whidden Sizing Dies to convert them to Arbor Seating dies very inexpensively instead of buying a whole new die! Thank you for supporting your existing customers ! You've made me a customer for life !

Good video spilled by the silly music it's to loud

That is a brilliant business… having all the major accuracy brands ( Norma??) is a great service to shooters!👍👍 Congratulations, and best wishes in the future👍👍👍🔥🔥

Where can I get an extractor kit?

Had a great afternoon getting my Bergara H1-4R lot tested at Whidden Gunworks. I had an appointment last Friday, 5-17-2024 to lot test my Bergara H-14R. We drove down to their shop from North Augusta and had a 1:30 PM appointment. We arrived a little early. The folks at Whidden GunWorks welcomed us in and led to the testing range. Jeremy and Lamar were running the test and explained the process. There are two very substantial test fixtures and associated target/data systems that allow two tests to be run simultaneously. Another gentleman was there to get his Voodoo run through the Eley test and I was there to get the Lapua/SK/Norma ammunition series. Both test are very through and include 50 and 100 meter data. Both Jeremy and Lamar are shooters, took exceptional care of our rifles, and throughly explained the testing as well an analyses of the results. I was happy to find a lot of CenterX that shot better than the Midas+ I had managed to buy recently. I highly recommend getting your rifles lot tested at Whidden Gunworks, they are great folks and do a great job. I have been a customer of their centerfire loading tools and ammunition and it was a pleasure to meet them in person.

That really cleared it up for me thank you

Is that JD shooting a rifle?

Wow.

Great news.

Hi John, I'd like to wish you guys the best for your new venture. I've used your products for center-fire cartridges and will not reload with out them. I hope you consider teaching a reloading class in the future.

I'm going to have to ride over and check this out. Did you install a deli and a wet bar??? LOL. Great work Sir.😎

This looks great John! Would love to come see this in person sometime.

John All of my custom dies you've made me are Outstanding. They work great and the fit and finish is smooth as can be. I appreciate great craftsmanship.Many Thanks

At 0:20, when you say, "adjust the die down until it contacts the ram," do you mean adjust down till the collar just barely touches the ram? I ask this because a few seconds later, you say to screw the die down another 2 turns.

Hey John! I'm using an RCBS die in my coax press. I am loading 45-70 and I lowered the die to touch the case holder. It crushed the case. What did I do wrong?

non bushing is better.... less runout.

Get rid of the guitar music. Very annoying and it’s harder to hear

great video

Very informative !

Man I love your videos! Simple to the point and super easy to understand!

Thanks for making the video. I had to watch and rewatch many times as I was struggling to consistently size, and i now i feel much better getting consistent results.

John.. I can't say I'm overly impressed with this product. I started to set it up yesterday... I measured all my fired brass prior to this. With an electronic caliper, almost all the brass measured at 1.618 with the caliper set at zero. I tried 5 pieces of brass without any adjustment to the die. Not one of the 5 pieces came out with the same measurent. Anywhere from 4 to 8 thousandths. At that point I tried another 5 pieces, this time trying to adjust the lock ring using the click adjuster. Not only did it not click, but I also couldn't get it to adjust using the click adjustable lock ring... At this point I wish I hadn't of spent the $180 on something that doesn't work as advertised... What is your policy for returns and refunds...?

10,000ths short.

Excellent video…simple…I have not seen this technique on any other instructional reloading videos

One of the best intro to reloading videos ever…regarding sizing brass !!!

Well done, excellent information. I am in the process of reloading AR platform ammo. .004-.005 seem to be a bit more than I have been hearing to shoulder bump..002-.0025 Is your recommendation of 4-5 thousands just to ensure chamber loading with no cycling malfunctions? This the impression your giving me. Thanks.

Ok... so I've watched this video numerous times... Looking at the die from the top down, it appears you're clicking counter clockwise to bump the shoulder. I uderstand that you probably want to make these videos as short as possible, but a little more detail would certainly be nice. Your reply to this will determine if I spend any more money on your products.. If you reply at all... I guess we'll see...

I received my new click adjustable die today.... first of all, your instructions that came with the die are useless, There are no diagrams to show where when you're ready to lock the ring down, which one of the eight holes in the lock ring is the one to use to lock it down. 2nd... it also came with some other little pin (probably an inch long) and there is no reference to what it is, and what it used for. The lock ring doesn't have the inner race that you show in your video.. You'd think that for a die that just cost me $180 with shipping, you could do a little better....

Good knowledge and explanation . A lot of people don’t understand what is shoulder bump and neck sizing . this is very good for people shooting bow, action rifle.👍

good vid. thanks

Simple to use and makes the setup of the re-sizing die much easier. 👍

Hi John You mentioned in another video to keep the bottom of the die from touching for better concentricity. But in this video you're saying to let it touch. Which way is better? Thank You

RCBS says to turn it a 1/4 turn after you backed off the ram

Very knowledgeable. Far shot here but ive heard rumor you like N160 in some of your loads. Ive noticed theres very little data on it. Just curious. Thanks for the informative video.

What about the other setting on the die, the one that spins very freely?

Good explanations and loved the information. The music….shut it off. Very distracting.

Is that you're best recommendation!?

Is the simple sizing die a neck only sizing die ??

Super good video, but could you do another video with increased volume on that 15 second loop of dulcimer and harp music please? I could almost hear your voice at times.
