Hello Gents! I've seen the video and am pleasantly surprised. A new bullet feeder by RCBS that isn't calibre specific like the KISS and will fit any colour press.
Question is has anybody seen one and does anyone know when they might be available in the Great White North. I see that Midway has a price (389.US) but none available.

Any news if the Kiss is going to be available again from Frank Koch?
 
$$$

Holy, I can't beleive the price. And it only holds 150-200 bullets? It would be a great addition but for almost half the cost of the press, I don't think so. My AmmoMaster can spit out 250+ rounds an hour with only the one primer tube and I can live with that over spending the $400+ CDN for something that MAY speed up my production by 50%.

It's not like I shoot IPSC on a regular basis or 1000 rounds at any one time.

It is meant to compete with bullt feeders like the GFI (for Dillion Presses) and the KISS bullet feeders, but at a greatly reduced price tag and the unit comes with the components to feed 9m/.357, .40, & .45. RCBS is working on a version/kit for .224 & .308/.311 rifle bullets.

I saw them in action at the SHOT Show and they were nice simple & functional. (Got to try them out while there :))

So I do shoot IPSC and do shoot more that a thousand rounds a month! So...I want a bullet feeder! The question is can anybody give me an eyes on comparison of the RCBS and the KISS. I have now heard that both are good.

Has anyone actually spoken to Frank Koch as to availability for the KISS? I left several messages and no reply.

The RCBS has been ordered by Wholesale sports and "should" be in stock May 1st. (didn't get a cost).

The new website for the old KISS unit is ww_.mrbulletfeeder.com and Rick is the guy in charge these days. There seems to have been a parting of the ways and releasing of the legal hounds, so stand by....

No one can, because the RCBS unit hasn't been released yet.

I have a KISS and looking at the RCBS unit, it may not be adaptable to Dillon presses.

You've been reading the press release. Mfg BS.
 
Pressesss

Just to clear the air.

I actually spoke to the RCBS rep in Sask. He told me that they developed the feeder with the intention that it could be used for all of the progressive presses and especially the Dillon knowing that it is a great press which has the biggest market share of all progressives.

He also told me that they would be on the shelves at Wholesale May 1st. Didn't get a cost!

Well the RCBS website lists it at $495.00 US. With the CDN dollar where it's at, I don't know, at that price, if it's worth it.
 
TMJ style only bullets , I guess re fouling with cast lubricant. Nothing in 45 colt or 44? Heard him say 9mm or 45 acp
 
Any updates on this unit?
My RCBS dealer would be able to order it.

the Mr. Bullet Feeder (formerly KISS) is only being sold direct. the good news is he will ship to Canada. the bad news is he has a waiting list of a couple of months.
