RCBS Rotary Case Media Separator - A flaming POS
On the whole, I've found the products sold by the major reloading manufacturers to be pretty solid. This would be the exception.
Where to start?
- The two pieces of the exterior container are flimsy, come apart at the worst time, and have caused extensive use of bad language on my part.
- The two pieces of the interior shell also do not have a positive lock. I've routinely spun the interior only to find it's come open, dropping brass into the media settling into the bottom of the shell.
- You can't load the basket while it's in the exterior shell without it wanting to flip and dump the media or come apart. You WANT to load the basket over the shell, because it keeps the media filled brass from spilling all over. But you can't, because the basket doesn't stay in place and generally comes apart as you try and fill it if it's in the shell.
What does it have going for it?
- It was cheap.
Overall, I wouldn't spend the money for this again.
