    Corbin PCM

    Hi all. Haven't been around much, decided to go back to school almost done we'll see how it goes.

    Anyway, I picked up this beauty not really knowing what it was, saw Corbin and I jumped. Does anyone know if I need different wheels for different calibers? I really only make .224 bullets.

    You can go to Corbin's website and find out. He has a pretty good explanation about all his equipment on the site, and I'm sure he will on yours.

    Hope this helps.

    Yep, you need specific size wheel for each caliber. Corbin should have the wheels available. I have same machine. Works good.

    Works good is an understatement. It is the coin of the realm for putting cannelures on bullets. I have one and it is fast, precise and effortless to use. You can buy the wheel you need here:

    You also should get a couple of the spacer sets which aid in set up. Great score, one you will never regret. BTW, the current caliber should be etched on the wheel. What is it?

    Hey thanks for the link. Honestly I do not see the caliber etched into the wheel. A "W" marking with 2662.

    In your picture, it is not whatever is at the end of the shaft, it the wheel down on the top of the machine. You will need to pull whatever that wheel that is on there off, remove the locking collar and then pull the 1/2" thick wheel off. The caliber should be etched on it somewhere.

    Corbin used to stamp the wheels with letters that would identify which "range" of calibers it worked with. He then changed the stamp to caliberc specific later on as I understand it. When I picked mine up used it had a letter stamped wheel too, then the replacements I bought where stamped with cal.

    Swage on!
