Organized Chaos!

[Stan Hoover]

I currently use a PW for 12, 20, 28, and 410, and I'm waiting on 16 gauge dies.

it is easy to switch gauges and I like it allot. I of course have a Mec setup for 10 gauge 2 7/8 and also a Mec for 8 gauge.

I would still like to try a Spolar, am I wrong in thinking the Spolar would be the Cadillac of shot shell reloaders Mike?

Here you go Stan, Spolar hydraulic with dies for 12,20,and 28ga. I don't care what reloader you have, they all have their pluses and minuses. I can take off a 12ga. die for example, put it back on a year later and nothing will have to be adjusted and it will make a perfect shell. In the picture when the shell is ejected out the back, there is a large hole in the bench top and the shell goes into the drawer. Your welcome to stop in when your in the Harrisburg area and see it in action.

Chuck,
That is beautiful, well thought out.

We need a green emoji, to signify jealousy

I will have to take you up on that offer sometime,

Thanks,
Stan Hoover

I’d heard about your setup from a mutual friend And I still think you need K-20 410 barrels and a Spolar 410 head

I'll have to find an extra $4.5k laying around that I don't need and that ain't going to happen!

We had a local gun club member/friend come in last week after he’d sold off a portion of his H&K collection . He got me to call Rudy Etchen’s and get him a nice new K-80 I forget which engraving pattern but it cost him $18,000 . For just a 30” separated barrel gun . I still have the barrels to send to Briley for extending the chambers and a full set of skeet tubes once they’re operational again .

Stan, there are some good presses out there and then there are some GREAT presses out there. Spolar is top of the line. Maybe 5 minutes to change gauges too. I didn’t use it for over 10 years and all I did was schmutz it up and it runs like it did way back when. Nothing wrong with my MEC machines. They do their jobs well too.
