Default Reloading 2.5 inch 12 & 20 gauge low pressure

I’m new to reloading 2.5 inch, low pressure shotgun shells. Years ago I loaded 2 3/4s field loads with my dad. Now I am starting from scratch. I am getting ready to reload 20 and 12 gauge 2.5 inch shot gun shells . Can anyone help me find:
—Rellader: I was looking at getting a Mec 600 jr w/ the short kit
—wads? I am reloading gamebore hulls-they use a fiber wad when new, but there has to be a plastic equivalent
—primers? I saw someone suggests the Federal 209?
—powder?
—what ounce load of shot can I use? Knew the shells were 1 oz for the 12 and 7/8 oz for the 20. I would like to load 1 oz for the 20 and 1 1/8 for the 12
Does anyone have any ideas? I need to shoot low pressure for old German guns
