Mec Reloading 1-1/2Oz #3-#6 Shot Single Stage Steel Shot Charge Bar
$30.74
If you're loading steel shot on a single-stage press, the Mec Reloading 1-1/2 oz. #3–#6 shot charge bar gives you precise control over shot charges without the complexity of a progressive setup. This charge bar is purpose-built for reloaders who want accuracy and flexibility when working with steel shot—whether you're prepping waterfowl loads or target rounds. The bar's calibration lets you dial in anything from lighter target loads up to full 1-1/2 oz. charges, and it handles shot sizes #3 through #6, covering the range most shotgunners actually use.
Single-stage reloading takes time, but it rewards attention to detail. With a dedicated steel shot charge bar, you're not jerry-rigging a lead-shot setup or eyeballing throws—you get repeatable, uniform charges every time you pull the handle. That consistency matters when you're trusting your loads in the field. The bar mounts to your single-stage press and integrates with Mec's modular component system, so if your reloading needs evolve, your press can grow with them.
Whether you're a waterfowl hunter loading non-toxic ammunition, a clay shooter fine-tuning your powder-and-shot ratios, or an experimenter testing different steel shot profiles, this charge bar takes the guesswork out of the throw. It's a straightforward tool built by a reloading company that understands shotgun loaders' needs.
