MEC 9000GN 12GA Shotshell Reload, light use, redone by MEC in WI Sep 2024.

Hello. I just turned age 79 and think I’m done with reloading–given I’ve loaded about 200 shells in past three years. This is a great set for reloading 12 gauge, progressive loader. I sent reloader to MEC in Wisconsin this past September and asked them to recondition all parts and to clean and lubricate station one. Actual copy of invoice is on photo plus UPS charge of f$48. There are numerous upgrades to this loader per photos: RCBS scale currently sells about about $130 and comes complete with the original instructions; the scale is a delicate item and will travel to you in separate box with good interior wrapping . new plastic handle had price of about $30, many powder bushings never used per photos–I would go to a trap shoot and add new items just to have them in case of need, the MEC cover “dust cover ” the red MEC cover alone has a cost about $50 at my club Silver Dollar club, at least two shell bins and so forth. Look carefully at photos and you will see Brass Washer with dimples and grommet cover which goes over for powder bottle, & for shot bottle use just one grommet.. There are like 7 empty bottles for your use; when you add power or shot, you can load multiple bottles at one time. Original MEC 9000gn booklet will accompany shipment. Two red plastic units–per photos–and two funnels by MEC will be sent. Four screws with twist nuts are included for fastening loader to workbench;a black tray to catch empty primers is included. (On powder bottle attachment to loader the dimples on the round area should be facing up with grommet over, & then bottles. You will find multiple dimple bras are brass multiple grommets to cover–these are just back ups if needed.) Instruction manual shows all and You Tube has full 16 minute video on the right was to set up this loader There are many powder bushings and your powder guide will tell you how much powder and speed you want. I was buying Reliant E3 powder as it was both clean and low recoil. There are two MEC funnels for use with bottles. We are cleaning bottles now so that you the new buyer will be happy. There is also a red dust cover that goes over total machine; cost was $50 on this. Lubricant tubes for use on station collect one per instructions and video; two tubes are sent. OK that’s the whole story. As you consider comparisons to other offerings, pls. remember that this set has –2 years very light use –progressive bottles will be clean (PS: Handle for core steel also comes in pre-fab Plastic but sorry forgot to shoot photo: $30 value) –$50 dust cover. Two tubes of lubricant for use at station one collett: full instructions included MEC factory in Wisconsin at price of $170 plus $50 shipping this past October per receipt shown New parts such as $30 for new handle in plastic, and many spare parts in new packaging. Also please see that I have some 800 transactions on ebay with 100% positive feedback. You can trust me as good seller. You can find other MEC loaders similar to this but do not include many powder bushings, and MEC factory conditioning, and the $50 dust cover, two tubes of collet etc. Two boxes will be shipped UPS and you pay for just one; I will send UBS scale wrapped carefully in separate box. I was loading Remington RXP plastic trap shells and also reloading Federal paper hulls for one to two reloads. Plastic hulls by RXP seemed t have 5 to 8 reloads before some shell ends got frayed. On this loader, if you visit You Tube, there are a number of videos on the 900GN reloaded and instructions/tips on using the MEC 9000gn loader.
