Default 16 Gauge Short Kit

I’m currently reloading RST 16 gauge 2 1/2” shells
on a Mec Sizemaster with a lift kit. Slow and steady.

Will a lift kit fit on an 8567, you know, the one with the manual carousel?
Sure would like to crank them out faster.


1oz, 7/8 and 3/4 loads. Light shot loads with the assistance of a pinto bean for better crimps.

I’m pretty sure it won’t . On a single stage the short kit only affects the crimp stages . Now that’s not to say you couldn’t figure out a way to use brass lifters on the crimp stages of a Grabber but getting them in and out every times would be a major PITA not to mention you inevitably spill shot getting them in and out .
