Elvis Ammo Vs Fortune Cookie 45LC

[44Blam]

I learned today that this was a thing. Apparently, these guys have a bit of a rivalry.

Thought I would share because I was entertained at the back and forth videos about powder coating.

[Walks]

Each have their own way of doing things.
In can be entertaining sometimes. And sometimes they both tick me off.

I've watched too much of either.

Both are goofy cuz they PC. Real boolit casters don’t PC their creations. Come on mang!

Elvis you have to speed up the playback just to watch him. I usually do 1.75x speed so I don't fall asleep. Elvis goes in to a in depth explanation on what to do. FC45 shows a couple things but never really goes in depth to explain what he does. He is more of a show n tell type. Never really tries to explain anything

Haha, and all this time I thought I was a real "boolit caster"

They both have positive points for new casters and reloaders. I will say that FortuneCookie45LC has helped me much more, especially when I was first getting into reloading and casting by breaking down simple questions I had... just wish he wouldn't get side tracked documenting his entire life and just make casting and reloading videos.

Proof that fumes from PC’ing are not safe.

That's hysterical - I've just tried that and it's actually quite practical too

FC45 sounds like Bullwinkle when he talks. It makes it hard for me to watch his videos.

[Rcmaveric]

I like both of them personally. Never new or noticed the fued.

My wife hates his voice. She comments instantly when she walks in the room and I'm watching one of his videos.

HA thats exactly what I was going to say.
Seriously, I cant watch either one. Tho they,er better than most (on you tube), I dont think either one should be giving advice.

Elvis ammo = Homer Simpson" you sure take a long time to say nothing Marge" !

[reddog81]

Both seem to know their stuff, but the videos are usually twice as long as they need to be if not 3 times longer than necessary. Playing Elvis at 1.75 speed helps and FC45LC can be played at 1.25 or 1.5 and it makes it more tolerable.

Elvis' introduction turns me off so I don't watch him any more.

[VariableRecall]

Elvis and FC45 almost complement each other when it comes down to their content. FC45 feels more like an older relative showing you the ropes. Elvis is more like your excited uncle showing off his new advancements in powder coating and casting. I like them both, even if they both sound a little weird.

They had done a very good job of showing the important steps of casting and reloading.

I agree that they're each a bit idiosyncratic, but provide good basic information. But I haven't watched either in some time. I find myself disagreeing with them on some points.

Wiederlader I find to be on point in the videos I've seen on his channel.

Well hello YouTube, this is fortunecookie45lc coming to you from the hot lead zone

I wish they would research some of their techniques a little better before posting. Elvis's low heat method didn't work. FC said to throw away your gas checks, and he absolutley butchered the video he made about hi-tek. Seems it is more important to get a video up than whether the info is correct. They both have contributed alot to the community.
