Hi
I came across a used MEC 500 progressive 12g press. I can only find a users manual online, but not much else. Anyone have experience with this machine and opinions? MEC site did not list this (not even in the discontinued section) |

Just checking, are you sure it's a 500 and not a 600 jr? <a href="http://s250.photobucket.com/user/dryflash3/media/Shotgun/P7100232.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg272/dryflash3/Shotgun/P7100232.jpg</a> 600 jr after a little more research I found a manual online for the 500. says its a progressive. date o. the manual is 1961 still waiting on pics from the seller, but he said its great shape and he hasnt used it in over 20 years. wants to trade for a box of primers but not sure if ill be able to find parts if needed. |

Just had to comment...that photo triggered some nostalgia. Check out the old school logos and can of Hercules powder. Just like when I started in the 80's with my Size Master. i wonder what the price is on those primers...I can't see it here.

Except for the loading block that I made, those are all fun show finds. Quoted:
