It will say everything on the power adapter that ships once it arrives, right?

Anyone else looking for one, would be wise to get the 220v 50hz version from Brownells. Anyone who has a brownells account will also have a 10% discount waiting for them in the spam folders of their email address used for the Brownells account.

I got mine today, sweet :)

Oh, and hello!

hey deadmeat - thanks for the tip about the 10% discount but I didn't get one, maybe it's on it's way!

I have been asking Brownells to quote me on shipping a few items but they seem to take forever. have you had good experience with their shipping charges? I see Baldrick posted above that they are reasonable.

Got my 10% voucher today so I'll be ordering tonight :).

Chilliman try emailing them directly I think it's sales@brownells.com or orderdesk@brownells.com. Last time I tried to get an answer through their online form it took over a week.

They quoted me $117 US to ship a chargemaster and RCBS chronograph so should be about half just for the chargemaster

I dispensed ten charges yesterday just to test it out. 42gr of 2206H took about 20 seconds to meter out and each one was exactly 42gr when tested on my beam scale.

Very happy with it.

Now I've just gotta finish prepping cases so I can use it properly :lol:

I'm sure you can Google for the link but there was a good review of this and a few other combo dispensers and the RCBS came out on top for consistency.

Constantly reported as a good unit.
