Chargemaster Combo on Sale

[Grapeshot]

FYI a large U.S. online retailer whose name starts with a B seems to be having a sale on the RCBS chargemaster combo, 11% off, and promo code DR7 gives you another $20 off.

RCBS is also offering a $50 rebate if you buy $300+ worth of stuff.

Boom, just saved $100... or spent $230...

You will wonder how you ever got along without one.

I picked up a Chargemaster Combo a couple months ago. It is an amazing piece of hardware.

Picked up mine from a different us retailer but none the less its an amazing unit.

I have had mine for 2+ years now, and would feel handicapped without it.
Made a special adapter for the powder dispenser tube, and get perfect weights every time, even with large, extruded powders.
It speeds up precision reloading a lot.

I use a couple of them. Nice kit. What is even better is their customer service... out of warranty for a repair, you send them your old unit and 50 bucks and they give you a new unit. Simple.

Will they dispense H1000?

I never thought I needed one but scooping h1000 onto my scale (thrower can't cope) evey load is a real pain.

other uses report success with H1000 and the unit.

No problem, just make sure you buy another thing from RCBS worth 1 cent or more. Otherwise you won't be eligible for the rebate.

Can't wait for it to come in the mail

Cool.....just ordered mine. With the discounts and me being able to sell off my Hornady powder thrower and scale it really wont cost much.
Thanks for the heads up!!!!!!!!!!!!

Which retailer are we talking about?

Not sur who the B is but Natchez has a good buy right now, thinking about pulling the trigger on one.

A comment on chargemaster and H-1000 type powders. The master works good with all powders, but, with large kernel extruded powders sometimes you will see the grains kind of "log-jam" a little in the tube resulting in a bit of an over weight charge. We are only talking a tenth or two, either wet your finger tip and take out a grain or two or throw the pan contents back in the hopper and let her go again. The chargemaster has an auto feature when you put the pan back on it automatically dispenses another charge, this is the feature which makes this unit addictive.

I run 2 of them and it is amazing the time saved over the old thrower, powder trickler and Ohaus 10-10. I paid over 1 1/2 times the amount you guys are talking and I still wouldn't be without my 2 !!
Some technology is actually advantageous...........

Which retailer are we talking about?

Brownells

Deadmeat is right, Natchez is selling them for $289 vs. $299 @ Brownells\

Glad I caught this before I ordered.

Cheers!!

With the brownells $20 off, it actually works out to be cheaper. Code is dr7

 

[Haagen_Dazs]

I thought we couldn't order stuff worth more than $100 from Brownells?

Tempted, but not sure what the shipping deal is.

Oh...it gets better Where does it say about the code?

I just used mine to load up some H1000 for a ladder test on a lapua- it dispensed 14 loads in 1 grain increments that I checked on my rcbs 505. every load was within 1/10 of a grain. I set up my trickler beforehand and just ended up dumping it back into the hopper unused.

So I think no problemo with large kernels
