Ozark Okie Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Hey Thunder Creek, I'm thinking of getting back into shotgun reloading....sold all my stuff years ago after I stopped shooting skeet. Have tried to do some research on the grabber vs others, but after a while, my eyes just glaze over. I get the idea of manual indexing from station to station (I think the MEC 650N does the same). Any information you can provide to help understand the benefits of the grabber will be helpful. Assuming the machine is in good condition without excessive wear or broken parts. Bottom line for me is this - can I take your grabber and what comes with it and start loading 12 ga light loads, without adding any other dies, measures, etc. Need to load maybe 75 rounds a month...not high volume at all, so I really cant justify the cost of a MEC 9000, for example. Thanks. OO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesa Horg Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 One thing I like on the Grabber is the last station rounds over the crimp a little bit. They look very factory like for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. OO Well Okie, The main upgrade I think from the 650N to the Grabber is that the Grabber has a built in supersizer which resizes the base of the shell which really helps in the shells going into the chamber very easily and more importantly ejecting the shells after they are fired. Hope this helps. Plus this comes with an adjustable charge bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Sam, SASS #34718L Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Wayyyyyy Back when Wally sold Black Dawge Powder Co. to Powder Inc./Goex and they were selling Loaded Black Powder Ammo.... I thought they would have had some Mega Heavy Duty industrial Loader or two.... I went to the Facility...... and there was a long loading table there with a Grabber at each station. So a Grabber is what I bought & 20 years later it's still popping out Great Shells! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
