That said we cooked one of the same units Boo had - my Partner ran a 130 grain Nosler Partition through it by accident!
Killed the gears!

My Partner and I have gone through at least 6 or 7 now. Finally had enough (we generally run ~ 400 lbs+ each winter) and decided to get a "Laster".
Went with Cabelas One Horse Commercial (stainless gears) models.
Damn TOUGH!
It is a Monster! Has not even slowed whatsoever with anything we've tossed at it. Now with well over 1,000 lbs under it's belt, methinks it is safe to say we found the one that will be sticking around!
Good Luck Boo! Drop the dime for a GOOD one now, or run through a handful of so-so ones on your journey there. Either way you'll end up with a higher end model eventually...
Cheers,

Ouch!
Normally , construction in a bullet resulting in a great base retention is beneficial.
