[David Wile]

Hey folks,

Hornady has been selling this machine for about 16 now, and over 53,000 of them have been sold. That seems amazing to me. In the first 8 years, Hornady sold about 9,000 of them. In the second 8 years, folks bought about 43,000. It is a very good product, and a lot of folks are finding that out.

I bought one of the first machines in the summer of 1997. Hornady has made some changes to the machine since I bought mine, but I am still sticking with my original machine in its original stock format. I never had any problems with my primer feed or wire eject systems, and I never had any interest in case or bullet feeders. I am happy with my old 1997 version.

I also had three of the 366 progressive shotshell machines, and I did purchase the upgrades Hornady made for the auto primer shut off and the primer seater. Those upgrades were very nice to me.

My Hornady machines never had any parts break, and my oldest 366 was actually a Pacific 366 which I had over 40 years.

Best wishes,
Dave Wile
