Honestly, every time I watch one of your quick reviews I end up spending money on a tool I didn't know I needed. I've got tools that do the same job but there's always a better mouse trap, so to speak. Thanks again.
I've really been impressed with PMA lately. Tons of good stuff at great prices.
For sure. Really smartly designed and not overly complicated.
they do good work for sure
Pat Regan makes top quality products and is a pleasure to do business with
Now that is a tool that I will be ordering. Thanks for sharing John.
Defiantly going to look into one.
Nice review, John.
Thanks
Every other F class John video costs me the best $100 I’ve ever spent 😂
Still less than Cortina though!
Lol 😂
Very nice product
F-Class John you have the best Buddies a reloader could wish for . They bring you all these great tools to try out . I wish I had mates like yours 😀.
Lame.. Most (ALL) of his reviews are clearly sales pitches for whatever he is selling. People don't even know a commercial when they watch one these days.
@@CoyoteRegulator Do you think f-class John is the shamwow guy of the gun world? He’s putting one over on us?
Nope not at all. Believe what you will but nearly everything I make videos for are just things I like using or things people have asked me to buy and review. I also CLEARLY disclose in the few videos that are for item given or discounted to me that they are. I don’t play those games like other channels may.
Thanks for sharing, looks like a great option.
Nice!
So the take on this " Purchase your own "Reamer" keep it to fine tune your loading process when adding a tool like this. Also John? Why are you not having your tools "dial indicators, Calipers and torque wrench's calibrated"? Quality Assurance...!!!! Thanks
PMA makes great stuff.
This looks real quick to measure the shoulder bump. They are limited on what calibers they have. How about a comparison between the Wilson gauge and this one?
Good video! I’m a bit of a chubby checker myself😉
It's sold out sadly
So to be clear this is still a comparator tool rather than direct measurement?
Correct
The flaw I see here is that it’s a .001”
Indicator. PMA should have used a .0001” tenths indicator so you have a finer reading. Just my opinion
I don't think that. 0001 will make a significant difference. Only my opinion.
@@richrudley2650 absolutely it will. A .001” indicator can be off a few tenths upon repeat. So if your only bumping shoulders back .002” then I assure you if you have one .0017” it could effect your impact…that’s like saying a grain doesn’t matter
Is there a way too zero too your cartridge without turning bezel on front makes 2 revolutions b4 bottoms out
I just went to the website. Every caliber is sold out. I wonder if they are discontinued?
Can you use Wilson Case Gages with it? Or do you need PMA gages?
Wilson case gages will work
Where can you purchase the entire kit for creedmoor
PMAtool?
Like PTKs said, pmatool.com
@@FClassJohn Not available in six. Five Creedmore. Are there any alternative sites to purchase this item?
I have one of these. It's a nice tool, but checking a fired case may or may not work. The insert is too tight for my fired brass, and since I don't have a custom reamer to open it up, I'm stuck. Or more accurately, the case is stuck.
If you are able to, I would send it to your Gunsmith and ask him to open it up to match your brass.
@@FClassJohn Followup - as an experiment, I ordered a LE Wilson case gage. Not only do the fired cases fit with no issues, it works perfectly to measure bump with the PMA tool. The Wilson case gage costs a bit more, but it's cheaper than having to send the PMA case gage to a gunsmith to ream what should fit in the first place. I'm going to see if PMA will take back the one that doesn't fit, and move forward with the Wilson.
@@2whl4re that’s good to know and really helps give people lots of options.
Seems much more time consuming than a simple Hornady comparator. Man, people get sucked into spending money in all kinds of ways
How does it compare to the Redding Instant Indicator?
I’ve never used to the Redding so I’m sorry I can’t compare. The reason I haven’t used it is probably the only thing I can tell you and that’s because it has a very limited number of calibers that it’s offered in.
Did you hand ream the die?
Yes I did.
@@FClassJohn I talked to the people at PMA and they now have blanks so that you can make your own according to your reamer. They told me while doing this to ream so that .050 protrudes at the end of the die. FYI I ordered on with the blank and it’s the same price as a the one you get with the kit. FYI
@@JimC-ik6pu Ok cool, thanks for the update.
Nice tool but rather have the short action customs.
The SAC is more versatile for sure and is what I’m currently using and have been for a while. But I will say this thing is crazy fast and repeatable for someone looking for a shoulder bump comparator.
Shehane?
No, mines a straight .284
@@FClassJohn whats a shehane anyway? just a reamer design by that guy?
@@treece1 it’s a .284win that has the body blown out a little for more case capacity. It’s lets you shoot a higher node than straight 284.
@@FClassJohn wow, thanks for answering. i shoot br and stuff, i dont know much about fclass/284.. WHATS the go to 284 projectile? 180 hybrid?
@@treece1 Yeah, 180 Hybrids are the easy button for most 284 competitors.
Wish i could find one
Found one lol
