Go east they said. it will be fun, they said
Checked out Princess autos stuff and found that it seems prohibitively expensive, just to coat bullets. $200 + tax
it is easier to take and cheaper to order it from harbour freight in the US. $69 and you'll still come out on top after shipping and exchange.
guess i`ll stick with shake and bake for now
 
My gun came from KMS as well, 4 or 5 yrs ago and the price was a bit under $90.

I have found there are benefits to both methods of powder application. The shake method seems to be easier to get a heavier thickness if your trying to "bump" up a slug for a tighter bore fit (something I regularly do) and it is
quicker and no compressor required. The gun method allows for different platforms to be used to hide bullet nose's so they are clean of coating and can be used to manipulate the amount of "base flashing" because of the thinner coat.

I don't think either on has much of an advantage for handguning and its shorter ranges but with longer range rifle shooting both can be played with/used to a distinct advantage over the other.
