Keep buying until you're broke, then double down and buy even more. You will not regret it.

Better start stocking up on shot too. The ChiComs are shutting down our supply of antimony and we will see the price of shot and factory ammo increase. A 20% increase in price will not be unheard of.

How are you loading 2.5" shells? Are you doing them on a press set up for 2.75" and placing something under the shell on the crimping stages?

MEC makes a short kit for their 600, JR press. Works slick. Put it under the shell holder for the two crimp stations for 2 1/2" shells, remove it for 2 3/4" shells. EZ PZ.

That is awesome! I had a 600 JR given to me so now I'll get that kit and I can load 2.5's as well!
Thank you!
