Shawnee Hills Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 Strongly considering adding a bullet feeder to speed up the process. I'm currently loading Scarlett or MO 105 gr. bullets in 38 sp. and wondering if this feeder will reliably feed those short little guys correctly. Anyone have an experience to share?

Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 I have three of the Mr. Bullet Feeders and have done a lot of experimenting with them. Once the bullets start getting very short they tend to have some problems. In this photo is a Miss Scarlett 125 on the left, an SNS 100 in the middle and a 105 truncated cone. The 125 is .500" long and feeds fine. The 100 is .460" long and three or four per hundred will be upside down. The 105 is longer but because of the very sharp nose it will have an occasional bullet feed upside down. I watch as the shells come out of the bullet feeding station and if the bullet is upside down I turn it over. I have not tried the 105 Miss Scarlet is presently selling but she notes it is .475" long. That may be enough for reliable feeding. One thing you will need is the small spring bullet feeder tube. The short bullets can turn sideways and get stuck in the standard tube. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tall John Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 Before you buy a Mr Bullet Feeder, take a look at Robert’s Custom Case & Bullet feeders on Facebook. He lives in Thailand and has developed some really nice AND affordable feeders and proves great follow on service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Al Bore Internet search showed two, third party posts. Neither post revealed how to purchase. Evident Robert’s isn’t too concerned about selling?

Jack Spade Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 I purchased a case feeder from Kevin Roberts very early in his development. A couple years of use and I had a problem with the case feed plate. Contacted him and he sent me his improved design plate at no charge. When I add a bullet feeder I will absolutely order from him. If you don't want to do Facebook I first contacted him through MeWe. If you don't know about MeWe it is kind of a social media site but run by conservatives, they allow sales of guns and have thousands of groups covering just about anything imaginable. Free to join and there are a couple of SASS/CAS pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skullbone Willie Posted December 1 Share Posted December 1 I use a Mr Bullet Feeder with 122gn Turnicated Flat Points and it’s almost flawless once I removed it from the case feeder and put it on a very stable mount. 36” gas pipe, a flange and a piece to mount the unit to.
