Midway had it on sale, as well as drive hubs and retainer springs for better than 50% off, so I finally got it. I had to get the cordless impact out to break the subplate retainer screws loose, but other than that the install went very smooth. I put my 9mm shell plate back on and wouldn't you know, IT EJECTS THEM!!! I've tried bending eject wires myself, going slower, going faster, making my own wires out of coat hanger, you name it to try and get the darn thing to eject handgun rounds. If you have this press and have the old subplate, get this now. I'm going to have to retrain myself to not grab completed cases by hand and knock them into the bin. It has a bunch of other hardware such as some set screws and clamp-like things, which I assume are used for the case feeder install. I guess I know what's next.

I load for enough calibers a fairly small amount at a time that the quick set and take down with the bushing system is a life saver. The powder drop is awesome and I have no problems what-so-ever with the primer feed system. There are plenty of upgrades out there by places line Inline Fabrication if you want more bins, a different handle, lights, etc. I'm also thinking of a ghetto bullet feeder just based on a tube standing on top of the die. I know it might not save a ton of time, but I like the thought of being able to set everything up and load 100 rounds with only having to feed cases. It would remove one more thing for me to do, or screw up, between handle pulls with a minimal amount of work up front.
