Have an ex-ordinance vet friend who taught me to reload. Offered me one of his seven shot shell presses for 12ga: $125. This one is the progressive Mec 650, oldie but goody. His disheveled basement is filled to the brim with arcane rifle and shotgun ammo, some calibers and shotgun chambering I didn't know existed; lead billets, powders, long gone boxes of factory ammo, collectable (?) rifle and shotgun cases, etc. Glad he only chews his cigars vs lighting up. And good thing he lives 1/2 mile from the volunteer fire department.

$125 seems a reasonable price for the 650 progressive.
