i am a machinist and presslug as a company is over charging all of their customers with the 300% profit margin this is the reason americans buy chinese because they cant afford american this entire set up should be about 350 to 400 bucks and have atleast 2 caliber die sets for that price im sorry i have to make my own because as a machinist i cant afford the rediculous prices i mean you can buy dies for rifle or pistol brand new for less than 50 bucks and the pistol dies are carbide yes i know the dies are for working brass cases but the machining process for brass sizing and lead swaging are the same so we all know it can easily be done so quit screwing the american customers PLEASE its why americans do not buy american because american companies charge indivudual people like they are buying a press for commercial use

[@misterlewgee8874]

It does look well designed and made...but...price prohibitive

[@AirRuna1]

Built My Own with a Harbor Freight Arbor press a small engine lathe and $40 worth of stainless and brass, all total cost me about $250.... these fancy CNC-built presses should only cost about $350 all total this pricing is ridiculous

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

Yep, sweet👍

[@jbhk7977]

You are so right my friend. The Slugpress lead cutter = 359 euros. Every single Presslug die caliber = 399 euros. All common calibers in dies (.22/.25/.30/.357 and .50) it will add up to 1995 euro. The Presslug Press itself = 1.887 euros. For the Presslug in the most common calibers you will have to dig up over 4240 euros. Then you need to buy the lead and/or an oven and molds to recycle your old slugs and pellets which will set you back another 300 euros. This makes it a total of 4540 euros not mentioning the sizers. The average slug price is about 20 euro (over here) per 100 in .357 This means that you can buy 22.700 slugs for the complete Presslug setup alone. When you just invested 4500 euros in total, you have not yet pressed a single slug. When you shoot 100 slugs a week, you can shoot over 4.1/4 years before you have earned your purchase price back. When you only use your slugs for actual hunting, and pellets and cheap slugs for fun shooting, you are looking at a lifetime of ammo. I love the press idea and I understand that quality equals money. I also understand the fun of making slugs . . . but these prices are an insult and take away most of that fun factor. Yes you can buy 1 die, but most of the people that take slug making serious are hunters who use .30/.357/.45/.50 and even .72 caliber . . . I believe you can make this equipment for 1/4 of the money and the same or even better quality/tolerances.

[@danielcooper175]

Who ever priced this needs slapping with a wet fish, that price is ridiculous. I'd prefer to just pay £10 for a tin a time it really doesn't add any value at that price for anyone.... It's one way to price yourself out the market 🤔

[@blackimaje]

the price gouging on these presses are shameful

[@misterlewgee8874]

I had a glimpse at the price...I think I may take up drinking again to help me recover...

[@gumbystown]

So you're going to need multiple dies with multiple different waist size for your slugs to try

[@artofcards_tcg]

Stupid expensive product lol

[@thorgraum1462]

this is definitely something to add to the bucket list. but first of all i need to get the machinery needed to make my own Dies

[@bigdog107no2]

What a load of shit! There no way you're going to spend less money buying a press!

[@AirgunAdvisor]

Not for everyone, but there is also a resale value once you are done.

[@le3045acp]

no way to save money at these rediculous prices

[@pete7894]

This looks awesome. For me i would want to pour my own lead blanks because i have a ton of lead bars. They make a cal spec mold but can't find one in USA. The only store that say they can get it has a 78% bad reviews, so that's out. The mold is a deal breaker for me at this point.

[@AirgunAdvisor]

Don’t be afraid to order one from overseas. I have had good luck with several purchases from across the pond.

[@kevintravis2154]

Nice job. The cost of equipment to start is too high. You need to make around 10,000 slugs before you get back your investment for 1 caliber. I will just buy my slugs. Not sure would shoot 10,000 slugs in my lifetime

[@christosmavrommatis912]

I had my eye on this for a long time but not any more. Reason? It is purposely too expensive and not easy to find your chosen subcalliber (was looking for 5.52). I resulted to casting at 35.7 and 37.8 gr on average, 8 slugs per time and then weight shorting. At approx 150€ /mold it was more cost beneficiary to cast slugs than to purchase (I use them to fully auto and semi auto LCS sk 19 and huben GK1). For my target shooters I use purchased ammo.

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

100%FACTS👍

[@williamwilson2624]

That's an interesting device. Great video!

[@AirgunAdvisor]

It really is! Opens up a lot of possibilities with accuracy and matching slugs to each platform.

[@anthonydefillippis8806]

Just a little constructive criticism. The center hole for the core cutter should be offset not directly above the adjuster. What winds up happening when you cut the cores sometimes the core does not fall. Therefore, you will cut another one squishing the one below it. Which therefore will not fit in the dye properly, Also, just a tip, you should use a small pair of vice grips on the adjuster to keep it from backing out. This is only for the core cutter. If I could leave a photo on here, I would to demonstrate. Again that center hole is for 22 caliber cores, which is the most common airgun projectile to shoot.

[@williamhensley5726]

I am curious as to why they didn't make it to work with a standard single-stage press for a regular reloading press it could be a nice product in time but way too expensive for what it is right now. Nice Video

[@johnschniederjan1683]

Who sales these?

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

Good luck finding one😂👍 Plus they don't even make their dies, some third party person in Europe makes them and it takes around 8 months to get a die at $900 each sadly and they're proprietary to that one press.

[@TiredMachine]

Can the PresSlug system make a hollow ogive slug similar to a FX hybrid slug?

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

Nope.

[@skinnymitchairgunbrotherho7152]

Cool system

[@AirgunAdvisor]

That why I reviewed it. Adds a whole new level to explore with airgun accuracy.

[@joemevilanova]

Você envia para Brasil?

[@AirgunAdvisor]

I don’t sell anything.

[@kmom777]

Would be nice to show how tou can do different light slugs with sharp tip and boat tail with the same hardware or some add-ons

[@AirgunAdvisor]

That is as easy as swapping out the die for another available one. Not sure those are options at this time.

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

$900 dollars per die and that's IF the third party seller is willing to put you on the 6 to 8 month waiting list in order to purchase one. This press is ok, BUT the dies are virtually impossible to find because they're proprietary from some third party seller overseas😞

[@Backyard_ShootingAA]

I saw this at SHOT SHOW and it was exciting but it's very cool to see you use it. Thank you!

[@missedshot9235]

You will notice that 'Airgun Advisor' will not even hint at defending the notion of price gouging...

[@heathhalfhill6401]

So you need about 2500.00 USD to make your own slugs?.....I think "IF" and "WHEN" I need a slug I will simply just grab a .22LR or a .22 WMR and be done with it. Way too costly to make your own slugs. Honestly embarrassing that they could even ask this much for what it is.

[@AirgunAdvisor]

I don’t price them, just share the options available. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Hipporider]

Wow! That's crazy expensive 🇦🇺

[@TheHerald45]

​butt you do make an advertisement for them, while you can buy about 30.000 slugs for the same money.😮

[@ggjjfjjfhjxghhbv]

Friend, how can I contact you?

[@tommyrussell1415]

Great video. In. Way the adjustment looks is like a swing lock die, but that is a push thru caliber specific item. Unlike Lee sizing die it's adjustable. It's also the complete inverse.the top makes the heel n the "top punch" makes the nose Like the waste lead removal journel

[@tommyrussell1415]

I'd probably just cast and size mine

[@JoseSantos-jd3dn]

they dont have 22 caliber for sell. and i think they will not have it again in stock here in europe. only 177, 25, 30 and 35. the slugs are perfect, always same weight. 50gr .25 RA4 952fps bc 0.125 validated at 600 meters 40cm by 40cm gong with m3 impact. better only altaros slugs

[@AirgunAdvisor]

I have seen it here in the US?

[@unclejim2330]

Why not cast with molds instead, no wasted lead.

[@ggjjfjjfhjxghhbv]

Friend, how can I contact you?

[@jimmyhaley727]

$ 100.00???? LOL

[@jimmyhaley727]

NOPE,,,$2000.00 WOW WHAT A DEAL,,LOL

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

It would be nice if this company ever had these presses in stock or service them by this being an overseas company, nor do they make the dies that goes to them because they are made by a third party that charges $900 for (1)ONE die IF you're ever able to order them from overseas😔 These are ok but I chose Corbin s-press here in the U.S. for half of what this company charges. Nice review tho👍

[@le3045acp]

corbin is 5 times higher than it should be

[@Brianbri-nq3cc]

@@le3045acp That's 100% true, but it's better than this machine.

[@martyn6792]

That is an interesting piece of kit, what is approximate cost ?

[@le3045acp]

rediculously 6 times more than it should be but people buy them so the price stays high

[@JohnVentarino-ey5ln]

Slugs aren't good.

[@tommyrussell1415]

Depends on the twist and fit. Buddy gets bug hole groups at 50 with them. W 330 HP slugs in my Texan I get 2 moa. With 290 hb slugs from my buddy down south it gets legit moa of just slightly under.
