    Rene - I think it's cool, but how does it work ? Any instructions ?
    The carrying case would be nice enough on it's own.........

    You whack the rounds into the vertical feed and place the belt just before the finger crushing wheel cog thingy, and crank the handle.
    I did get it to work but I only had two .306 rounds! and no it hasn't instructions

    I filled an entire 250 belt by hand and after 2 days all the skin peeled off my supposedly rock hard fingers...those cartridge pockets in the belts are very tight let me assure you!

    I love these machines, I have used one for the Mg42 reloading belts, it was easy and fast. I wonder if it the same with the US one, or would it be more complicated?

    With these you have to use the cloth belt.
    I have one somewhere but it's lots in my pile of junk
