If I wait for the .22 magnum tool, will I get a device that will work on.22lr as well; or will I need to buy two sets?
All of my stuff is run of the mill American stuff, with 1 custom .22 mag coming up.
Got a lot of older .22 mag that could use some help from your tool.


THE 22 MAG RIMFIRE IS A .224 BULLET AND A LARGER CASE SIZE... THE STANDARD 22 RF CASE IS .220-.221 WITH A HEELED BULLET....IN THE MAG TOOL IT WOULD BE TERRIBLY OFF CENTER..... SORRY .....THE ACU'RZR IS GOOD BUT WE JUST CAN'T GET ALL OUR BIRDS INTO ONE TREE... PACO

I have the Acu'rzr for .222/.223. Is the one for .224/.225 available separately without the rods? If so, what is the cost of that part only?

I HAVE A FEW LEFT... $40 POSTPAID.... BEST I CAN DO... THAT'S ABOUT THE COST OF THE BRASS AND LABOR... PACO

Looks like I'll owe Paco $75 and shipping!

Folks, it may be that whatever .22 LR you can get will be what you shoot. Such a tool that makes cheap/available ammo perform better could be invaluable. Get while the getting is good.

THANK YOU HOBIE... POSTAGE PAID.... WITH THE PRICE OF BRASS GOING UP... THE PRICE OF 22 RIMFIRE AMMO IS ALSO GOING TO SKY ROOCKET.... PACO

I still like the one I have, and it looks as if I will need to get one of the new ones, too. The one for the .22 magnum sounds great to me as my carry gun for some of the Summer here in Texas is a NAA 5 shot .22 magnum. Summer here means very little clothing for the .22 mag to get through and the nastinose in it should work very well for personal defense.

DARN IT! Now I have to save more money to geta new tool(s). I have the old version with all the punches and love it. It does what is advertized if used as directed. Saves money on buying more expensive 22 ammo. I can buy bulk at China-Mart and improve it. Paco, not many can say thier tool gets better with age. :D

Paco,
This is just the very tool, I must have!! The nice Doctor told me to no longer enjoy the punishment of recoil! Some thing about a detached retina. So back to the good ole days of 22cal. shooting for me. My question is, do we just send a money order for $75 to your PO Box, and your post of 17 June stated that price is postpaid? I only have one domestic 22 rifle at this time, but plan on getting a Marlin 39 this week, thus I assume that the four chamber model will suffice.
Thanks for sharing all the great information...

I don't see anything that says what the acu'rzr is, how it works, or any links to more information. After reading through a couple times, I got the idea that it is a resizer for loaded ammunition. Correct? How about a link?

Thanks,

I don't mean any disprespect to our host but the all caps is as hard to read on that page as it is in a forum posting. I finally did find the gunblast article link in this thread, though, and now it makes sense. Thanks. It looks like a pretty cool tool. I'll add it to my wish list.

I am confused. What models are now available and what do they (does it?) cost including postage. From the gunblast article it seems that there are 3 models at various prices. This forum only mentions one model and price. briing me up to speed and I will mail a MO, got to have one of these gizmos. 2520

GOOD QUESTION.... PHASE FOUR DELUX,THE NEW FOUR CHAMBER TOOL IS $75 POST PAID.... PHASE THREE, THE TWO CHAMBER TOOL IS $68 POST PAID.... THE OLD PHASE THREE $58 TOOL IS GONE AND THE PHASE TWOs ARE ALSO GONE...
SO ONLY THE $68 PHASE THREE AND THE $75 PHASE FOUR IS AVALABLE..... PACO

Get the new one. Specify which guns you will shoot the ammo in and chambers (I got a .22 Short chamber). $75 includes shipping.

I'll reiterate that if you give Paco all the info you can, you'll get a tool you can use. :wink:

I.e. .22 LR in a Single-Six and .22 Short in same. and so forth.

Hobie

Get the new one what? What are the choices, if there are any? If there is a choice, please describe the various tools and the price including shipping for each. Not trying to be a pest here , but if there are different tools I would like to choose what I think will suit me best and pay accordingly. The Gunblast article describes 3 tools but the prices do not concur with the information here. Further, the order blank asks which tool I want to order and how much money am I enclosing. I really need to know. Thank you in advance.

THERE ARE JUST THE TWO... THE FOUR CHAMBER TOOL $75.P.P. AND THE $68 TWO CHAMBER TOOL....POST P.

Very well, There is one tool, the ACU'RZR. The other 2 models are discontinued? The price is $78.00 including shipping? No other options at this time? The tool I was thinking of ordering was the #1 with the dish and Nasty Nose rods. This is no longer being made? Can I buy the Mini ACURZR for $30.00 as per the Gunblast article? Can I get a straight answer or is "Send $78.00 and you will be glad you did." the only answer to a serious question involving the purchase of your products? I can wait. Thanks again.

THERE IS A MINI TOOL THAT WILL COME OUT IN A FEW WEEKS... VERY SMALL FOR THE POCKET AND THE RANGE....
IT WILL BE PRICED AT $35 AND 4 DOLLARS POST&HANDLING.... PACO

As per the article:
"At the time of this writing, the new Phase IV shown here, with rods and four chambers, sells for $75 US. The Phase III with two chambers sells for $65, and the Mini ACU’RZR sells for $30. All prices include shipping within the United States."

Why is that so confusing? You can get whichever one that you want.

Jeff;

With the four chamber version, can I specify what I want the chambers to be ? Example: #1 for Remington 512, # 2 for Ruger Single Six, # 3 TC/ 10 " octagon, # 4 Remington 581.

Or will they be ? .222" , .223" , .224" , & .225"

I read your article, and also Paco's post. Paco's post indicated he would custom size, as I see it. Is this true? YES THIS IS TRUE!!!!!
