ChargeMaster Programming Article?

GSPV

A failure to plan is a plan for failure.
I thought there was an article here on programming the RCBS ChargeMaster. I've used search repeatedly and don't find anything.

Does anyone have the link?
 
I've never seen it on here but there is a good one on snipers hide that i have seen. Its not real hard to do. I made up a smaller tube for it and it works perfectly without changing the programming.
 
Here is a link to our Bulletin which references the S. African site.

Here are some more tips: http://www.6mmbr.com/chargemastertips.html
 
Thanks, guys. I'd found the South African thread. I'll read the bulletin here.

Reading the S.A. thread, other than the English posts, was somewhat mind bending. Certain words made sense, some were obvious, and some, I had not that first clue.
 
I leveled the CM up left-to-right and front-to-back. Let it warm up, programmed in a load and ran some tests.

There was some quirks at first. Figured out it was static on the draft hood.

After that, it's been great.

Next step is to tweak the parameters.
 
For extruded powders stick a 1"- 2" chunk of plastic straw (Mickey D's fits perfect) in the end of the delivery tube.
 
Call RCBS and Ask for technical support for the 1500 Chargemaster.

The techs are very good and will share with you all the information for the programing parameters. You will then have to experiment with each powder individually.

Thank you. That's very much my plan. Gathering the other info is mostly to be able to speak intelligently and also to possibly catch errors.
 
Here are a couple of links from the "Home Page" www.6mmbr.com. Try your search there. The "Forum" search only returns results from www.accurateshooter.com/forum I hope these answer some of your questions. There was also a recent hint to attach those little magnets around the power cord that has worked well for me.
