The MEC 9000GN progressive reloader is a 28-gauge shotshell press built for serious reloaders who want speed and consistency without the guesswork. If you're running volume through a progressive press, the 9000GN eliminates the manual “feel” that shotshell reloading has traditionally demanded—primer seating is automatic, so you can focus on keeping pace with the machine instead of babysitting it. The press handles both low and high brass domestic shells with minimal adjustment between loads, and you can pull finished rounds or work-in-progress shells out at any station for inspection or troubleshooting.
What sets the 9000GN apart is its Auto-Dex indexing system. Unlike manual presses where you control shell progression, Auto-Dex moves shells through each reloading stage automatically when you return the handle to the top of the stroke. That means less hand movement, more consistent dwell time at each station, and measurably better shell-to-shell uniformity. Every stroke resizes accurately, which matters when you're chasing tight patterns or load consistency downrange.
This press carries the same core innovation as the 8567N Grabber but adds automatic primer seating and finished-shell ejection—features that add up to real time savings on high-volume reloading days. If 28-gauge shotshell reloading is a regular part of your season, the 9000GN rewards you for the investment every time you hit the handle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the 9000GN work with both low and high brass shells?
Yes. The press handles both low and high brass domestic shells and requires only minimal adjustment when switching between them.
How does Auto-Dex indexing work?
Auto-Dex automatically advances shells through each reloading stage when you return the handle to the top of its stroke. You don't manually position shells; the press does it for you, which speeds up the reloading cycle and improves consistency.
Can I remove shells for inspection or adjustment?
Yes. You can pull shells out at any station to inspect them, make adjustments, or troubleshoot without disrupting your overall workflow.
Does automatic primer seating require special technique?
No. The 9000GN's automatic primer seating removes the operator “feel” that manual systems require. The press handles it for you with every stroke.
