BIG BUT> those sizer lubers where always screwed up.
Air bubble in the lube ( started with Magma's- then made our own, then, RED ROOSTER lab when they still made blue) Most issues wen t away then, But That stupid collator Sucks, clutches are weak, you have to send them back to factory to have fixed, wait for 3 to 4 months, while no bullets being sold most of that time, waiting for parts, that are always just 4-6 weeks, more like 3-6 months.......
Bullet Casting machines have been made, copied, recopied, automated blah, if you can't lube and size why cast??
We closed the casting down for public consumption, after getting 4 lubers to have one or two running, 44 different sets of molds, two alloy types, and still people don't want to pay you for your time, or investment. They want cheap bullets though.
Even the little magma master cast. is not an original concept, I've seen the old one they patterned theirs after!!.
that said good luck
