Mark7 new FW17, quick review, much more sensitive, now catching berdan


Recommended Posts

So I just upgraded to the new FW17, the difference that I can tell to FW17 is basicly much more sensitive digital clutch, and smoother overall operation. the 2 previous versions has also been good, to me at least, but this bumps it another level.

I requested an external stop button some time ago, and they have actually implemented it in this firmware, hardware is ready in july end of month, which is basicly now, definetly getting it, allthough with the recent software and fw upgrades I havent used the stop button on the pad much.

I had 5k of brass that needed processing, basicly I load something I call a short supercomp, the brass on hand was pretty much junk brass, so in 5k rounds it has stopped 6 times, 2 due to SS pin beeing stuck the primer hole, (wow never had this before) then 3 times on berdan brass, and one on a ringer in the swage station. Gotto love it! I've had some berdan converted to boxer on previous software versions, so definetly more sensitive ;)

Love it mark7 guys! this really is an awesome product, and I feel Im getting my moneys worth with new stuff beeing added, so hey, I feel like giving credit, where credit is due, so hats off to you! :)

Here i a video of throwing berdan brass in, as you can see it runs 2 sizeing dies 1 swager/expander and 1 expander, but its still sensitive to discover it.

SW Version 00.00.11
FW Version 17
