    Best deals I have seen are thru Kaizen Tactical in OZ, or get the V3 direct from Adam in which case landed cost is less than local.

    Speed of dispensing is not an issue for me as I complete each round individually once powder in the case. Whilst I'm doing that the seating the Chargemaster has dispensed and the next charge is ready. Then onto the Fx300i and maybe a couple or kernels to add, then into case, projectile seated, runout checked (target ammo only), into cartridge box, and then process repeated. Use the same pan on the CM as the Fx. Overall the time taken to load a batch is about the same if you charge all the batch as one process. So again, speed of dispensing is no advantage for me.

    Of interest is how bad the Chargemaster can be. It will quite often truck along dispensing almost the exact required weight and then out of the blue it throws a whammy, mine are mostly light. Good enough though for hunting ammo.

    If my Chargemaster were to die I would consider a V3. The scale on the poxy thing has already died once and had to be replaced.
