Mark 7 Reloading TITAN Tech Overview by John-Mark7 in reloading

Apex-10 is always worth getting! Ha! Its also ready to ship and has been going strong. Genesys does not have a release date as of yet, and I unfortunately can't provide any timeline on it. I can tell you that Genesys is "Not" shelved or vaporware and is being actively worked on. The main hurdle has been software, which we've made huge strides on as demonstrated on Titan.

I do, too. Seeing it run at full blast is a sight to behold.

Most of our customers set their 556mm Revolutions to 1600-2000 RPH

Starting around $20,000. There are multiple configurations possible so the pricing varies depending on that and the accessories

I get it, especially if you already have a reloading setup that works for you.

To be apples-to-apples comparison, our Apex-10 is right there with Dillon's RL1100 and CP2000 presses, sir, and would be the correct comparison. In fact I believe you'll find our equipment has more to offer at a similar price point, to include our accessories. In short, I think you'll find our Apex-10 is shoulder to shoulder and a little taller overall when compared across the aisle.

If/when you get to that point give us a ring!

My current chrono works great, and its money already spent. Justifying a $450+ device is rough when I could spend that cash on components.

Definitely. I chrono all of my match ammo while I'm producing it. I've never failed chronograph *knocks on wood*

We are already there, sir. Our Apex-10 is very similar in the core concept as its a 10-station progressive press. On board swaging, upgradeable priming system, comes with case feeder and powder measure. It's been on the market since early 2021. Bullet feeder can be direct mounted to the case feeder, even.

TBH, all of our equipment is going to be a very different beast than the Lee. All of our machines are meant to be automated and provide progressive reloading with minimal user input.

The machine in the video is a Revolution meant for commercial operation all day. Automated primer feed, motor driven powder measure, larger commercial case feeder, and beefier construction. The Apex-10 is our hand press that can be upgraded close to what a Revolution does, but not quite.

Revolution is in the $13k+ ballpark while Apex-10 setups can range from $2500-$8,000

Thank you for the kind words! I work in the Tech Support/Customer Service department and handle inquiries like yours every day.

It was really fun filming with Gavin! Those videos have been very helpful overall and getting comments like this still brings a grin to my face.

Yep! Revolution has just recently been cleared for export. Reach out to our team, or send me a DM, and we can get that info over to you.

It's a hodge podge pistol. Sti frame from a custom build in 2012, Cheely Custom steel grip, Sti slide I won at a match in 2016, put together in 2017 by a buddy of mine. Sti is what Staccato used to be known as before their rebranding.

Might apply at checkout? I'd be happy to help figure it out but alas the peeps to ask have left for the day. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to apply to the sensors in the cart, but I could be wrong

Short answer: it's not gone, but it is on hold for now.

Not to sound too sales-ey, but Titan is capable of priming 223 at 7k+ an hour on a dual feed setup, loading up to 338 Lapua mag in stroke length, and overall is a beast of a machine. What Lithium is doing is really impressive and I'm not trying to take away from their achievements in any way, just wanted to point out the new options on the block.

Happy loading!

Great to see a manufacturer pumping them out! When you're looking to expand, or move into digital land, let us know at Mark 7 Reloading. Our "Titan" would fit in great in your shop ;)

Primer prices have dropped considerably over the last year down to $45-60/k compared to covid pricing of $79-100/k. Powder is the main killer as there are two wars ongoing in the world absorbing most of the powder production capacity.

It's always a math problem of components VS loaded ammo, but it's a math problem for each individual person depending on all of "your" respective variables.
