This is a limited run sale once these are gone they will go back up to normal prices.
This sale will be listed on the website very soon.



Thank You

Wow, that's a pretty crazy deal. My local dealer doesn't carry AT so I won't be buying this, but someone out there's going to get a good deal.

The old "get the iron in the ground for cheap" method.
 
Tim, if I buy a set will you ship my Featherweight magnetic switch I'm still waiting for? /Tim
 
Aerotech hardware or Rouse-Tech? Not that it matters great price no matter what, I just though Aerotech didn't make HPR cases any more? or am I mistaken?

I think Aerotech is still producing the Hobbyline cases, everything beyond that is Rouse-Tech.
 
Is the retaining ring the seal ring? How do I order? Is it possible to pick up at Red Glare to save on shipping?
 
'tis on the Wildman Web Site

Please note, this picture does not include both cases -- waiting on an updated picture! :)

The retaining ring is not a forward seal disk. It screws on to the top of the case where a standard forward closure would go, trapping the spacers between the "floating" forward closure.

Wildman told me that :). I forgotten about the front needs a closure. Guess I got used to the CTI motors. What I am waiting on is if the set comes with the seal disk. Tim thought that was a very good question.
 
Even though I already have all the Aerotech 38MM cases(except the 1320) I just couldn't pass up on this bargain!

Thanks for the SUPER deal, Tim!
 
This may be a dumb question: Does it have a forward closure? And how long is this sale for? I just want to make sure that I don't need to buy anything else if I get this.

The sale is until Tim runs out of them. Once they're gone, they're gone -- he made a special purchase, to get this pricing.

Ordered mine. Mostly a CTI user, but at this price won't hurt to have the hardware for the few loads I do like. Looks like its supposed to come with the Seal Disk. They were invoiced for them but they don't see them in the shipment from Aerotech.
 
If I understand correctly, for full length reloads like the J500 or J350 you just leave the spacers out. Is that not the case? IOW you don't need a normal forward closure. Or is that not correct? :confused2:

I have used the spacer system with the 600ns casing and while it takes a little getting used to, it's worked fine. However I put the BP in the floating forward closure BEFORE installation. Some people think that a bad practice. Of course if you are using electronics only, it is a moot point. And if using full length reloads (360ns or 720ns native) then the closure is 'right there at the top' and little is different. Even one grain short is really pretty simple. It's when you get into the two grains shorter (like using a 480ns load in the 720ns case) that I find installing the closure with the BP more to my liking.

This is a screamin good deal. Too good to pass up.

That means you checked the box to signup for the Wildman email list, but you were already subscribed.

Your order is ready and waiting for Tim & Jackie to process.
