Graf just sent me an ad with a bunch of loading equipment from a company called Smart Reloader.

Anyone ever hear of them ? Quality product or ?

Just curious prices were attractive but concerned about quality.

Thanks

BigB

I think it will rate about the same as Frankfort Arsenal (Midway's brand) I'm pretty sure Smart Reloader is just a Graf's home brand, I haven't tried it yet but my electronic hearing protectors will be in soon, I ordered them Friday. I've always had good luck with anything I've ordered from Graf's and I'm sure this product line will be no different.

They have a website: www.smartreloader.com

There is contact info at the bottom of the page that gives a street address in Pinerolo, Italy. Not sure if this is a Graf brand or just a new company that started up in Italy. A call to Graf would answer that question.

I didn't realize they were their own company, I had never seen them before so I assumed it was a Graf's product line.

Looks to be another online retailer with manufacturing arrangements for "private label" reloading gear. Much like Midway.
But If You go to their web site you will find that the company is located in Italy.
I was caught by their pricing. Note that one Euro is 1.36 USD. And shipping will be very costly.
Import permits, Customs fees and taxes.

I've seen some of this Italian equipment. It's showing up in the box stores. The instructions are printed in China. I have an idea that this stuff is being relabeled to show Italian manufacture but is built in China. The price kind of gives it away.

It's through Graf's so shipping is only $4.50

Midway refuses to deal with International customers from their US based website; therefore Midway.de that is for German customers.

From what I've seen on SmartReloader.com; it appears to be similar to Midway's UK & German operations, a way for Graf to deal with European customers.

Just my $0.02, if I'm incorrect please advise.


Cheers,

Well I got the electronic hearing protectors today. They were well worth what I paid for them, they aren't as nice as my more expensive sets but for the price they are great. A functional product that doesn't break the bank.
