Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. I signed up here so I could put my 2 cents in on the Camdex. We received our Camdex three months ago. I have ran about 100,000 rounds of .380 ACP on it so far. Here is my review. The concept of the machine is outstanding. I have had the most problems with substandard machine work. For example the guide track the cases follow was .005 thousandths wider at the entry compared to the exit. This caused binding at the exit even with new brass. Wear bars all had rough edges making scratches in cases. Size die we had special made and crimp die were hitting shuttle bar. Found several loose bolts through out the de-bugging process. One motor mount bolt fell out on the table. Powder charge bar bearing froze up. The index travel was not correct. Shuttle bar bent at point where the guide pin is installed. If you are not a mechanically inclined person you will be when you are finished doing what it takes to make this machine run. There were a few other issues to overcome also that I will not go into. The bottom line is that the machine is capable of being an excellent high speed loader. You just have to have the ability to make it run. Communication with Camdex on the phone is very difficult with Bob. I usually try to talk to Tom. Nothing against Bob but Tom is a better listener. Bob trained me at the shop and he was an excellent trainer, just hard to communicate with on the phone. We are getting an Ammoload in 6 months so I will come back and and review that also.
