mec 600 jr press question

87mustang · May 17, 2011, 08:17 AM

I have a mec 600 Jr 12ga press that can do 2 3/4 and three inch shells. If I drill and tap another Hole in the appropriate place, will this effectively load three point fives.

HUH??

To do the 3.5 will require at the minimum, changing stations 4 and 5 for sure to get the precrimp and final crimp correct.

Graf and sons, among others, list a conversion kit to enable loading of 3.5 inch shells - you might want to look into one

You need the conversion kit for the first station (sizing) die.
