doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com Slightly OT, PW 800B Loader??

Terry,
There's a new primer slide that workes much better than my old one with a wire clip. Worth the bucks IMO.

I was wondering how much PW would charge for the redo. By the way, Jess, it wasn't your picture.

Boy am I "out of the loop" on this Hi-Jacking!- I have a Webster's Dictionary- 2nd College Ed. and on page 663 it has hi-jack (to steal or swindle or to force a pilot to a non-scheduled etc-etc. ) but No ils.- Que Pasa Aqui Amigo?? Diga me por favor!!

Anyone have any input about how much difference is there between the 800B and the newest model? Is there enough real world functional change to warrant buying new?

BTW
Bill,didn't expect so when you said he was distinguished.

I load all four gauges on the old 800B because I like the full length sizer die. The short sizer dies on later "improved" models that allow a taper crimp are not an improvement in my opinion. Consequently, I choose not to invest in the later loader models and am still loading on my seventies vintage 800Bs. Once in a while, I buy an accessory that is truly an improvement, like the quick change bushing feature, and the counters, but no need to buy a new loader. I am not familiar with the new primer feed, but will look it up on the website or get Jim Cunningham to show it to me next time I see him, probably next month.
