VZHIK-Master is a Russian brand of equipment for hunting shotshell reloading. Since 2010 we have been designing and manufacturing in Samara the tools that make reloading fast, precise and enjoyable: the VZHIK-Crimp resizing system, the VZHIK-Matrix star crimper, wad cutters, wad seaters, powder dispensers and components for 12, 16, 20 and .410 gauge.
It all started with the VZHIK-Crimp. Brand founder Dmitry Zakharov — a hunter himself — invented a way to restore the base of a fired hull while simultaneously knocking out the primer, and built it into his own tool. The name «VZHIK» (the Russian onomatopoeia for a quick «whizz») came up on the very first evening of brainstorming — after the sound the tool makes doing its job.
The patented VZHIK-Crimp system quickly won hunters over, followed by the sharp, productive wad cutter, the VZHIK-Board reloading stand and cork wad kits for cutting your own wads.
The flagship original design is the VZHIK-Matrix, which closes a shell with a beautiful star crimp in just one press stroke — up to 7 shells per minute. A unique patented construction with no analogues in the world.
All VZHIK-Master equipment comes with a 6-month manufacturer warranty. If anything seems to work wrong — contact us directly, even if you bought from a partner store. In hunting, everything must be reliable.
