roughshooter Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 I have bought a second hand mec 600 jr press with the intention of reloading a few cart. I am only looking to load some game carts but want to load some 3" carts as well. As I have no empty cases where do I buy these from???

Andy H Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 When you look on the Siarm site look at the figures in brackets ie: (12/76/22) the first is the calibre (12) the second is the cartridge length (76) 3" mag and the 22 is the height of the brass case.

mikee Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 ive loaded thousands of 3" wildfowling shells, dont bother with the cheddite 3" cases they aren't that good and a bit too short, get once fired Remington Nitro steel cases from precision reloading in the states, they'll air mail them over in a few days and they are a much better case for loading than the cheddite http://www.precisionreloading.com/mm5/merc...ry_Code=12_GA_3 mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
