Why 10 Stations

What are the Benefits of 10 Station's?

A common question we receive at Mark 7 Reloading is, "Why do our presses feature 10 stations?" While this may seem straightforward to seasoned reloaders familiar with 7-station presses, it’s not immediately clear to those newer to reloading or progressive systems. The key advantage of a 10-Station toolhead lies in its ability to separate specific die operations, allowing each station to perform a dedicated function for enhanced precision and efficiency. Below are some of the key benefits:

Separation of Sizing and Decapping
By using a universal decapping die, the decapping pin can be removed from the sizing die and installed over the priming station. This setup not only allows the sizing die to have its own dedicated station, but also enhances the centering and hold-down of the case, leading to more consistent priming.
Separation of Flaring and Powder Drop
Separating these two functions improves both the quality and control of the case mouth flare. This configuration also ensures that the powder measure is solely responsible for dropping powder. Systems that combine flaring and powder dropping can cause brass to stick to the flare plug, which can dislodge when the toolhead lifts, potentially disrupting the powder measure and leading to inconsistent charges. Our powder measures are specifically designed to drop powder, and attempting to use them for flaring can damage the mechanism.
Dedicated Bullet Feeder, Powder Check, Seating, and Crimping Stations
With fewer stations, you may be forced to combine some of these critical functions, which compromises both time efficiency and the overall quality of the reloaded rounds. By dedicating a station to each of these functions, our system saves you valuable time and ensures greater precision, allowing for more effective and consistent reloading without the need to frequently switch dies.
Station Separation Produces Superior Results
Combining critical operations like some other die makers, such as seating and crimping, can result in subpar outcomes, such as bullet jacket damage, which affects both accuracy and consistency. Separating these functions maximizes the potential of each round, ensuring higher-quality ammunition.
Freedom of Customization
Although the 10-Station toolhead offers ample space for advanced setups, you don’t have to use all 10 stations if your current needs don’t require it. For example, if you’re primarily reloading basic pistol ammunition, you can use the 10-Station toolhead as you would any other. The additional stations, however, provide future-proof flexibility, allowing you to expand your reloading setup as your needs grow.

These are just a few of the many reasons why a 10-Station toolhead offers significant advantages for serious reloaders. If you're unsure where to begin, explore our recommended setups below. By clicking on the image of the toolhead or selecting the "Setup" button, you can take a closer look at each individual station and see how the system is designed to optimize your reloading process.

How easy is it / how long does it take to change calibers?

The ease and time required to change calibers depends on both your primer size and level of experience. Small calibers can take as little as 30 minutes or less with all necessary accessories. Small to large caliber or large to small caliber changes could take up to an hour depending on the number of pieces changed.

How long does the Apex 10 take to set up out of box? Do I need any special tools?

No special tools are needed, but a good Allen wrench set is recommended. It will take about an 1 hour to 90 minutes to get the press set up* meaning the press is physically set up but not ready to load on: that will take another 1 to 2 hours. The necessary step are:

1. Install the sensors
2. Set up and adjust the bullet feeder and case feeder
3. Set dies
4. Set the sensors
5. Set powder measure charge, etc...

In all, you should expect to spend approximately 90 minutes to set up a manual press, or approximately 3 or more hours for an automated press with sensors.

Why should I purchase a Revolution instead of an Apex for my commercial ammunition manufacturing business?

The Rev is our flagship/workhorse press that comes standard with a larger 14” case feeder, Mr. Bullet feeder pro, digital powder measure, and commercial vibratory priming system.
This is a direct drive unit that is extremely smooth in operation and designed to surpass that coveted million round mark.

How easy is it to automate an Apex 10 later?

Very easy: Simply install your Apex 10® / Evolution™ Autodrive which typically requires 30 - 45 minutes on average.

How much will I save by loading my own ammunition?

This is a “loaded question” (pun intended). This will depend heavily on the cost of your components you purchase.
We tend to look at this as more of an opportunity to load ammunition to your own specifications and tailor to your paricular guns.
Your monthly ammo bill is actually likely to increase, not because you are paying more per round, but you will simply be shooting more

What makes the Apex 10 press better than a Dillon (or other competitors)?

Our presses are 10 station, and designed around, and for automation. Almost by default, this makes them more robust in operation and have much tighter tolerances.
With 10 stations, we can separate all aspects of reloading to create a better finished round of ammunition, while still adding sensors and bullet drop stations. No more combining seating/crimping dies, powder drop with case flaring, or sizing with decapping.

Can I use other manufactures dies?

Absolutely. All standard 7/8"-14 thread dies will work in our presses as long as they do not need contact with the shell plate for proper operation.

Manual Apex 10 vs Automated Apex 10, which should I buy and why?

We would recommend a manual press for anyone who is newer to reloading, or unfamiliar with progressive presses. There is a lot happening all at once with automation and can be a lot for the operator to handle without the basic knowledge of press operation. Automation is a great step up for loaders down the road once they are familiar with the process.
Automation can, and will add a level of consistency to the operators output. The motor will operate the press in the same manner and speed for every stroke. This can have a positive effect on powder drop, priming and bullet seating/crimping. This will also give a higher sustained output.

What do I need for a caliber conversion?

The Apex 10 comes with both small and large priming system components. No conversion parts needed there.
Caliber specific dies
Spare tool head and stand (optional but highly recommended for faster caliber changes.)
Extra powder measure (optional but highly recommended for faster caliber changes)
- if not purchasing a whole P/M, then will need a P/M conversion kit if changing from pistol to rifle or vice versa.
Bullet feeder conversion kit
Case feeder conversion plate
Press conversion kit (101-1068)

Can I add a digital powder measure to my Apex 10?

Yes, as long as you are using your press with an autodrive

Can I add sensors to my manual Apex 10?

Our digital sensors need an auto drive to function.
We highly recommend our mechanical powder check sensor for use while loading on your Apex 10.

Do the sensors work with the Evolution™ Manual Press?

Yes, when used with an Evolution™/ Apex 10® Autodrive.
