Bob, if you buy the Size Master with a primmer feed it is a pretty good set up, you could load a box in about five minutes. I bought one for a short ten and it does a great job.

Check ebay they always have a selection of used press'

A box in five minutes on a single stage loader? When can we see the video?

I would shoot 2 3/4" low pressure shells in any safe Parker that does not have square corner chambers. Some early guns do have such chambers and should be used with proper length shells or have the corners taken out.

Dave,

I can load a 100 shells on a Grabber in about 10 min if everything is set up. It takes me about an hour to load 100 on a 600 Jr. My biggest problem with the 600 Jr is my attention span and that is only about 10 min.

Harry,

I go in the reloading room to relax, and get away from HGTV.

Nice set up! I escape the TV as well, but ours is a @*$^!TV.

I also shoot 2 3/4 inch Winchester AA 12 ga shells with 1 1/8 oz 7 1/2 shot.
Asa Kelley said the PSI is about 5800 or so. They work well shooting trap in an 1879 Parker under lifter choked IM and IM. The same low pressure shell will also work OK in a Benelli auto.
