Hi all,

I don't as of now reload for shotgun, but am thinking of getting into it. I am most interested in the Lee machine. My experience with lee is mixed; I like their dies, their lead smelter, some of their molds, thier presses are ok but not that sturdy (I broke 2), and I HATE their scale. How's the Load all stack up?

  JMHO, get the entry level MEC, 3x the press and holds it's value if/when you decide to upgrade.

  Some guys like a mag full of lead, I still prefer one round to the head.

  I sold my Mec 600 jr 20 ga a while back because it was costing me more to load shells than to buy them. This year I started shooting black powder in cowboy action and the budget is tight, so I bought a lee. My experience has been similar to your with lee stuff. Some is great, some OK, some works. This probably falls in the OK range. The shells look good, but to change the bushing in the bar to get a load set up, you have to unbolt the press from the bench to keep from pouring shot and powder everywhere. on the MEC they just hinge over out of the way. Used ones seem to go for $25 on ebay, and new ones are $33 from midway. I think for $33 they are great deal.
