Paco Kelly's Acu'rzr

Paco has been making his Acu'rzr for a while. Neat tool, that works, and well worth the $58 or so he charged. Materials costs have upped his expenses and instead of simply passing on the cost he's got a new an improved version. You should read the product test at GunBlast.com but here's what Paco says:
I'LL GIVE THE SHORT EXPLANATION... 2 YEARS AGO OR SO A ROD OF 7071 BRASS (THE STRONGEST MADE) WAS $90, MY LAST PURCHASE THE SAME ROD WAS $333 I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT IS TODAY. THE LAST THREE RODS I PURCHASED 6 MONTHS AGO COST WELL OVER 1000 DOLLARS. ALSO EVEN THOUGH THE U.S.MAILS HAVE GONE UP A FEW CENTS PER STAMP... PACKAGES HAVE DOUBLED IN COST... SO HAS PACKAGING MATERIAL.... I JUST CAN NOT MAKE AND SEND OUT TOOLS AT $58 POSTPAID ANY LONGER.... AND THAT BOTHERS THE HECK OUT OF ME BECAUSE WE HAVE ALWAYS TRIED TO OFFER AN EXCELLENT TOOL AT A REAL LOW COST. SO STUCK WITH THIS COST PROBLEM, I DECIDED TO ALSO TAKE CARE OF ANOTHER PROBLEM... AND MAKE A WHOLE NEW DESIGNED TOOL. OVER THE YEARS MANY FOLKS HAVE HAD TO PURCHASE MORE THAN ONE TOOL BECAUSE THEY HAD A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT FIREARMS IN 22 RF. EVEN 22 SHORTS. THE NEW TOOL CALLED THE PHASE FOUR DELUXWILL HAVE FOUR CHAMBERS INSTEAD OF THE USUAL TWO. SO A PERSON CAN GET THE NEW TOOL IN .222 THROUGH 225 WHICH TAKE CARE OF 98% OF AMERICAN 22 RF GUNS INCLUDING SLOOPY CHAMBERED REVOLVERS. OR IF THERE IS A CUSTOM OR EURO BARREL INVOLVED .221 THROUGH .224. OR ANY COMBINATION OF CHAMBER SIZES, INCLUDING THE 22 SHORT IF NEEDED... ALL I NEED TO KNOW IS THE FIREARMS INVOLVED... I HAVE ALL THE BORES SIZES FOR MOST GUNS... EVEN THE CHINESSE AND RUSSIAN ONES. THE NEW TOOL IS $75 DOLLARS POST PAID... THE FORMING RODS HAVE ALSO BEEN REDESIGNED USING ANGULAR RINGS SO THAT AFTER A SHORT TIME OF USE THEY FIT THE TOOL VERY FIRMLY. SINCE I COULDN'T HELP BUT RAISE THE PRICE, I ADDED MORE MACHINING TIME AND MADE THE ACU'RZR EVEN BETTER THAN IT WAS... THE WRITE UP ON THE NEW TOOL WITH PICTURES WILL BE POSTED ON JEFF AND BOGE QUINS' SITE GUNBLAST.COM SOON... ALSO WE ARE VERY CLOSE TO FINISHING OUR NEW 22 MAGNUM RF TOOL... LET YOU KNOW WHEN THAT IS READY. A NASTI-NOSE FORMED 22 MAGNUM RF WILL CUT A RABBIT IN HALF... THANK YOU ALL WHO HAVE BEEN SO KIND TO PURCHASE MY TOOLS.... PACO P.O.BOX 1170 CORTARO AZ. 85652


I think that the writing is on the wall with raw material and fuel prices driving costs up. It might just be that soon, the ammo you shoot will be what you can get and not necessarily what you want. Such a tool can improve substandard ammo and make it perform better. This could be invaluable. I've got my order in, you should, too.

To reiterate, order by sending a USPS MO for $75 and your address to PACO P.O.BOX 1170 CORTARO AZ. 85652. Include a letter telling him for which guns you'll be using the altered ammunition.
