Jent uses a Model 375 PW. The 375 is the best ten gauge loader anyone can have.

You load the 2 7/8" 10 gauge on a PW 375 ?

Did you have someone make you a short kit like MEC sells for the 600 JR ?

I had a PW 375 a number of years ago to load for the 16 and 10 gauge 3 1/2" . I liked it alot more then the MEC 600JR I'm using now to load 10 gauge 2 7/8" !

Okay it helps if I go to the second page before I ask questions !!!!!!

Who did the PW conversion for you to change it from 3 1/2" to 2 7/8" ?

I'd be intrested in getting another PW 375 and doing that !

Nothing against the PW, but everyone at my club uses the Mec line, and the 600jr is a no brainer. Just make a shim out of wood or steel to load a shorter shell. If anyone is haveing trouble there's always someone to help out. Paul

Mr.Beck, if you use a Mec 600jr they can be found at gun shows for less than a 100$ - a new one for about 150$. If it's a used 12ga and you're going to roll crimp all you'll need to use the 600 is a different resizeing ring [ or don't resize and take the 12ga ring off ] . You can deprime, prime, and add the powder, wads, and shot with a 12ga set up. Then just remove the shell and roll crimp. Or buy a 10ga and make a spacer the proper height to go under the plate for crimping. I like 19grs of 700X and plastic or paper wads [ from www.circlefly.com ]. Tell Craig what you're doing and he'll set you up. Paul
