Mark 7 Reloading Digital Powdercheck
The Mark 7 Digital Powdercheck is a precision safety sensor designed for high-volume reloaders who demand confidence in every round. This automated powder-level detection system stops your Mark 7 progressive press if it senses a significantly over- or under-charged case, then alerts you via your press's computer tablet to verify the problematic round before resuming production. For serious handloaders running an Evolution or Autodrive machine, it's the difference between catching a dangerous setup error and letting bad ammunition slip through.
The Gen 2 Digital Powdercheck uses an infrared laser to measure powder depth inside the case as it's positioned at the sensor station. The system comes ready to work with small pistol, small rifle, large pistol, and large rifle cases—you simply attach the correct probe to the sensor rod and adjust the assembly height to match your target powder load. Once calibrated, the sensor continuously monitors each charged case, triggering an alert only when the laser detects powder levels outside your safe window.
Setup and sensitivity are user-adjustable; powder type and desired load weight determine how strict the sensor responds. This flexibility means you're not locked into a one-size-fits-all tolerance, and you can dial in detection thresholds that match your specific loads and powders. Whether you're loading for competition, hunting, or volume pistol production, the Powdercheck removes the mental fatigue of visually inspecting every single case and adds a layer of mechanical verification that keeps your press running safely and efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Mark 7 machines is the Digital Powdercheck compatible with?
The Gen 2 Digital Powdercheck works with the Evolution + Autodrive, Evolution RL1100, CP2000, Super1050, 1050X, 650 Pro, and 650 X machines. It's also compatible with all Autodrive models and the Evolution PRO.
What case sizes can the Powdercheck sensor monitor?
The system includes probes for small pistol, small rifle, large pistol, and large rifle cases. You attach the appropriate probe for your current caliber and load.
How do I set up the powder-level sensitivity for my loads?
You adjust the sensor die up or down to set the correct height for your desired powder charge, then secure it in place. The sensitivity depends on your powder type and your manual adjustment of the probe assembly position.
What happens when the sensor detects an over- or under-charged case?
The press stops automatically and sends a notification to your computer tablet alerting you to check the case powder level. You can then verify the round and decide whether to continue or troubleshoot the issue.
