MA Systems produced the finest products for the Star to make it fully progressive. I have all of their products and they work flawlessly.

My guess is the demand slowed due to Dillon's emergence into the market and Stars aging staff also MA Systems products were expensive. The Easy Loader without collator and air supply was $355.00 in 1986.

That is a great set up but I would not have the guts to make mine an auto drive as I'm more comfortable feeling the machine. You are also very mechanically inclined. Nice job.

Added video of MA Systems bullet feeder running. Have reloaded about 12,000 rounds on this system with no problems, just had to make sure the brass is very clean, no media residue. I have been using stainless steel media to clean brass before running through this setup.

Quite the setup. Was video in real time?

How many rounds per hour production?

The motor is a 15rpm - 900 rph I have to load primers every 6-3/4min.  per 100 rounds.  I end up with around 800 rounds an hour.  They also have a 20rpm - 1200rph motor that I could have gotten but I chose a little slower for my first setup.

Awesome setup, thanks for posting the video.
How do you find the MA systems bullet feeder, is it troublesome or finicky at all?
I've thought about adding one to my Star if I could track one down, but it would be difficult to find one I suspect.

Thanks for the video, when I finally get my reloading room redone I'll be adding the MA system feeder to the Star
