Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Great stuff, if you need it. The combined chamber checking and resizer is the best. Keep one in my cart since I shoot a double barrel. good luck, GJ 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheyenne Ranger, 48747L Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I got in on the QuikLoader when it first came out a bit pricey but it does a great job of narrowing the crimp end by 3° https://coyotesmercantile.com/products/quikloader Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearfoot Tracker Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I have tried other people's sizers mounted on their cart but I found the SlixSprings Shotshell Checker works great for me. I was having A LOT of trouble shucking shells (AA Low Recoil / Low Noise) from my slicked up Stoeger shotgun until I started using this device. I keep it on the cart and size everything that goes into my belt before and during the match. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I check every shell before it goes in my belt on the stage. It has virtually eliminated sticking shells in my SxS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 12 hours ago, Blind Squirrel said: What do you use to hold the shell? I remove the crimp starter on my Mec press and mount the QuickLoader at that station. I load a bunch of shells, then use the QL for the final step. Crimp starter goes back on when finished. Takes two minutes to make the swap each time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watab kid Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 i like the idea that it could become a stage on the loader adding extra stepd has always turned me off , i got rid of my mec base sizer for that reason , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a different type & mount it in an old Lee Classic Turret press. It uses an RCBS 12 ga shell holder. Could use a single stage press too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
