Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

I know Larry Frey uses a Posness Warren but I don't know the model number. He tells about the virtues of the PW whenever he discuses reloading. Larry showed me the PW a week ago and I wish I had one. I'll be using a MEC 600 as soon as I get my reloading bench set up (soon I hope).

The P-W 600 was never a popular loader, even when it was being manufactured. P-W no longer has all parts for the 800B, so I assume the same problem exists with the 600. I have used five 800Bs for more than 40 years, have no problems that I could not solve myself. I finally found I needed a part for my .410 800B that was quite expensive, so I broke out my backup .410 machine and retired the old one. Primer feed is not a problem, but some occasional tweeking needs to be done to keep them flowing. My 12 gauge 800B is on its second 100,000 on the counter. I would not recommend that anyone purchase an 800B today, because of the parts problem, even though I have never really needed any parts. On the other hand, the full length sizing dies on the 800B have always been its best feature. No other loader except the P-W 375 has this feature.
