12g shotshell progressive reloader
- Category
- Reloading Presses
BAIR 600, the predecessor to Pacific Or Hornady 366. 12 gauge progressive shotshell reloader, that has 5 stations.
TWO identical presses sold as a pair. set them up for two different hulls, or use one as a backup / spare parts rig.
Most parts are easily sourced from hornady / pacific 366. Bushings are compatible with any brand (i.e. MEC powder bushing using an incadapter, or RCBS, or Possness Warren...). Connect with me if you only want one. I can show a video if you need, or come take a look.
Press #1 (with silver top):
Fully functional, thoroughly cleaned and lubed, tuned, ready to start, with everything you need:
- Resizing station with deprime
- Depriming only station with primer catcher tray
- Primer feeder, primer tube, with fully functional and tuned primer drop
- Priming station is adjustsble
- Powder bushing adapter (to accept MEC bushings - easy to find on sale)
- One powder and one shot bushing
- Modified shot hopper which is stronger than OEM
- Modified powder bushing
- Original hopper caps and baffles
- powder and shot washer + powder and shot funnels
- Swing out wad feeder (an awesome feature) with wad fingers, and wad/powder compression gauge
- Crimp starter station
- Crimping station
- Indexed shell plate made of thick steel (thicker than the new hornady 366)
- Powder and shot plate disconnects and tilts so you can swap bushings or empty the hopper easily.
- Small LED light
This first one is / was my primary 12g reloader.
Press #2 (with blue top):
identical model, but not yet used or cleaned. Functions fine. Last picture. Includes:
- Resizing station with deprime
- Depriming only station with primer catcher tray
- Primer feeder cracked (parts only). No Primer tube. functional primer drop but not tuned.
- Priming station is adjustsble and works
- No powder or shot bushing (but you can get from many brands)
- No shot or powder hopper
- Powder and shot funnels
- No powder or shot washer (easily found at plumbing stores)
- Original one hopper cap
- Swing out wad feeder with wad fingers, and wad/powder compression gauge. Just needs to be tuned as spring is warped but still usable
- Crimp starter and crimpimg station
- Indexed shell plate made of thick steel that turns like butter and is well indexed
- Functioning top latch to tilt
Note that a basic and new non progressive press from MEC will cost more. This one does soo much more and you have one as spare that you can also build up like I did or keep for parts.
