If i placed an order on the 1st of october 2021, what is the dispatch date roughly for this order?
According to his site should ship in May. I'm around that same time so I'm hopefulIf i placed an order on the 1st of october 2021, what is the dispatch date roughly for this order?
My v3 does the same, either have a small cup of n570 with weezers or set it up to 91.4 and have it stop short.I got mine yesterday. Definitely a bit of a learning curve. I zeroed the scale once with the cup off and target set and it started throwing powder. Whoops.
I am curious if anyone knows how to make it accept +/- .04gr. with N570 and a target of 91.3gr it will throw 91.26 then spend the time looking for another grain just to end up at 91.34. It's not a big deal just kind of takes a bit longer than needed some times, plus I like seeing the green light
I'll have to apply the same technique with mine.My v3 does the same, either have a small cup of n570 with weezers or set it up to 91.4 and have it stop short.
Good start to your reloading career.Ready all 21 pages, watched F-Class John's YouTube videos. Got my A&D scale today. Decided to pull the trigger on the V4 tonight. Still need press, does, and primer press. Oh and the other major components like brass, primers, bull
I'm going to try the "restrictor" trick on my V4 - I know there is someone here that sells the add-on "nipple" to the small tube that basically makes the diameter of the small tube smaller and it makes for a quicker and easier "last kernel" find. On my old Hornady however, I found a particular ballpoint pen that had a rubber grip that fit perfectly over that tube, so that may be a cheaper option if you can find the right penI got mine yesterday.

Just lift the pan (shot glass) off the platen if it’s close enough.

Yeah, you're just deluding yourself. Your workflow is what I had set up before the original autotrickler ever arrived on the scene. It worked fine but after a while, I would make a mistake and/or get out of sequence. There are so many minute and discrete steps. When the first autotrickler arrived, it allowed me to reduce the complexity of the workload, and put the Chargemaster in storage for good. I used a small measuring spoon to throw the initial charge and let the AT do its thing, while I prepared the case for reception of the measured load.I have a chargemaster and dandy trickler before I upgraded to the FX 120i scale. Now I use the chargemaster to get my initial load and then transfer to the FX120i and use the trickler to get to the desired load. I’ve sped up the chargemaster so it’s not accurate but fast; like 7 seconds. Then it takes 15-20 seconds to trickle up to the exact weight on the FX scale. I can weigh a load in less than 30 seconds which gets me to about the same speed as the auto trickler. Someday I might upgrade but for now this modified system works well.

He stopped because of the possible software update in the works. Last time he posted, he mentioned if the update does not come out in the near future he’ll be back to making tips.Last I heard he isnt making them anymore. The latest version of the V4 might have them incorporated.
about 10-12 seconds with my v4. Plenty fast and accurate compared to my former way.The V4 cycling time isn't rocket fast but it allows you to relax and seat bullets while it is weighing. It's become a more pleasant experience.
Just heard from jthor, he is starting to make them again.I tried numerous times to reach jthor to purchase one of the tips and never heard back.
