We need this

Saw at SHOT, Berrys MFG new tumbler.

Nice just by itself...



Now it's awesome.



Quick on/off bowl, easy to dump in your media sifter...oh, did you need a new one? how about this new sifter from Berry's, with adjustable grate? keep it small for .223, and when they have all fallen through...



Turn the plastic cartridge to widen it so the other ones fall through.

What's the cost? Does it have an in-line -or other- on/off switch?

That LOOKS nice, wonder how well or long the motor will last?

I went to their website and it does not appear. Where can it be purchased?

Pic shows a "Patent Pending" label so I think it'll be a while before we see any on the shelf. But do I like the "quick change" bowel feature...

Regarding patent pending, its actually often the other way around. Once you file, nobody else can file for rights to the same invention. You put a lock on it, in effect. This is why the 20 year protection period starts at the patent filing date and not at the issuing date. So, if you want the maximum protection period for your production, you get the longest one by starting manufacturing the day you file for the patent. It does, however, take confidence that your prior art search successfully covered existing patents and filings to be sure you are not infringing on someone else's IP. You don't want to invest in production before you know you wouldn't be doing that.

Maybe I'm slow, but I don't get it. I can do the same with my Hornady by unscrewing a wing nut, but it's easier and faster to just pick up the whole thing and dump it into the media sifter. Do the base or the bowl on this one have other uses that would make it desirable to separate them?
