Woo Hoo! Score on a MEC 650

[Scoupe]

Went out to the club to practice a little skeet before league starts next week and was checking out the for sale items on the bulletin board. Guy had a MEC 650 advertised. When I got there to pick it up it turned out to be:

650 press with auto primer
a MEC super sizer
three shot bars
7 bushings
bench
3 bags of wads
A reload manual (1984 though gonna go pick up the current Lyman)
The Gun Digest book of trap and skeet shooting - GF has already claimed that.

Old boy helped me load it in my pickup too.

Grand total = $75

How'd I do? LOL!

Got a similar story. Went hunting this weekend and a buddy says he has lots of stuff taking up space. Wants me to take a look-see if I could use anything. Man- what a cache- he has like 7-8 presses, wads, powder, primer, shot all stuffed in this little room off a garage in his rental house. I walked out with a MEC 650, a MEC Supersizer, a bag of wads, a case of primers, a bag of shot and a pound of powder. He used to shoot skeet competitively and had reloaders for all gauges. Now they just gather dust- but I will keep one dust free. I just have to clean it up. It is missing a primer tray and the primer seating assembly. Anybody have a spare? I think I'll keep this friend- even though he thinks I have his Winchester 92. That's the 2nd gun he has lost in the last year

When you cost out the other items, you got the press for free!

Got my MEC for $40 at a yard sale, no extra's but still a darn good deal.
