CocoBolo Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I just boxed up all my non grooved shell plates to send to Hornady to get the groove cut for the EZ-Ject conversion. I was told it would take 6-8 weeks, say it ain't so! The EZ-Ject kit only took about an hour to install, some of that time went to readjusting the brackets for the Case Feeder. I only tried 45 and they ejected rather nicely since I have the case feeder, without the case feeder they seem to land on the arm that the case feeder slide rides on.

lugnut Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I'm just over 5 weeks and still waiting. Good thing is I have a newer shell plate for what I'm loading up now. I hope they come soon though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim M. Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Mine took one month. I sent them off March 13, 2009, and received them back on April 13, 2009. I had 17 shellplates to convert, so I figured that time was reasonable. Jim M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben b. Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 They did mine fast, a bit less than 4 weeks. I was expecting 6-8 weeks. I got mine back in Nov of 2009, so not too long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugnut Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Just curious- how do they ship them back? UPS? Did they let you know when they shipped them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben b. Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Lugnut, if you are asking me, I Priority mailed my 3 plates in and Hornady UPS'd them back. They did send me an automated UPS notice of shipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowrider Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I only had one and it took about 5 weeks. They mailed it back to me IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben b. Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 On further reflection, I can't recall if it was returned by UPS or mail. I know I got an email notice that it was being returned, andthe 3 plates came in new boxes inside a padded envelope. I checked my email, but all that has cleared out of the trash long ago, and there have been a passle of packages thru my house over the past few months. Sorry I can't be more exact.

ben b. Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Cool! Much better than that worthless, "I couldn't reload if I wanted to, cuz they have my stuff" feeling.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugnut Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Cool! Much better than that worthless, "I couldn't reload if I wanted to, cuz they have my stuff" feeling.... Yeah... I've been loading a LOT of 9mm lately... everything else went out for the conversion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Spiess Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Literally as I was about to click reply on this topic my wife sent me a message that UPS just dropped of a box from Hornady. I was about to complain that I sent 3 plates back on 21-Nov via Priority Mail and hadn't gotten anything yet. Apparently there is no longer any need to bitch, but it gives you a timeframe maybe. I would suspect that the machine shop they use lets them stack up and then processes everything they have once every 4-6 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoBolo Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 Look like I'm down for a while. I ordered a shell plate from Dillon so I'll just have to crank up that 650 for a while. Is it just me I got stuff coming and going everywhere. My weaver scope died sent it off as well, I have frame & slide in the mail to get Acc-u-railed, a barrel going back to Clark to fix the para cut. I'm losing weight going to the post office everyday for lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoBolo Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 I'm in shock, I mailed the shell plates Dec 28, I just got an email that the shell plates have been shipped. They are on their way back. Now that is quick only 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
