[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2335267, member: 116181"] After several months of lots of OT, I finally used my V4 tonight. it's been here for a couple weeks, got it set up the day it came in but didn't get to use it right away. It was just about the easiest thing I've ever done for loading. Cannot overstate how happy I am with it. No drift, no mess, never more than 0.02gn diff from the target setting, and 4/5 drops were dead on. Ran the calibration sequence once and every charge dropped in less than 10 seconds. One thing I noticed using it in person that I didn't pay attention to in the videos was that the large drop tube actually reverses about a quarter turn when it stops so that there aren't kernels hanging on the edge of the tube to accidentally drop. I was a bit concerned at first because it took ~20 seconds to load the trickler tube while calibrating, but once it was filled it was definitely only dropping single/just a few kernels of spherical powder to hit the last 0.02gn. Incredibly easy to clean the powder out of, no spills at all loading it back into a 1# can. Also I primed all the cases on my CPS, went very fast, I only wish that (hint hint) I had a way to really measure how precisely it was seating the primers. I've only run ~200 primers through it, waiting until I've hit at least 1k before I worry about measuring what it does. There's no possible way it's less precise than what I was doing with my carpal-tunnel hand going numb running the RCBS primer, and I'm very much so looking forward to priming a big batch of 300 BLK on it instead of doing 50 cases at a time over a few days. It was tough to tell what I was more excited about, the V4, the CPS, or the Inline Fab quick-change plates I finally put in. Three great products.
