Tim,
I'm glad it went to a fine gentleman and a lover of all things SXS. I've got me a sizemaster 16 ga loader which is about as good as the single stages get, but then I set up one of my 9000's and run a few hundred rounds and know one of my moments of weakness will result in a 16 ga 9000. Enjoy your new find.

Rex, thanks! My sizemaster is great and I will keep it for 2 1/2 in shells.
You know Jack Rowe died? He is missed.
That was the most interesting course I ever took and I have sure put it to use (on many 16s)
There is a Rocky Mtn Vintagers shoot at Wittington at the end of June, you should come. |

Tim,
I'm so glad I had the opportunity to get to know Jack Rowe when we took that gunsmithing course from him. I saw the news of his passing and knew it was the end of an era. I was amazed at the strength he still had in his hands even though he was kinda stove up with the Parkinson disease.
I will put the Vintagers shoot on my calendar, but don't have much hope of making it. These two bird dogs need a lot of training and conditioning and I have a half dozen rifles I need to complete before bird season rolls around next year. I turn 75 this summer, but life doesn't seem to be slowing down enough for me to catch up. You take care of yourself. There is a chance I may be going down to Arizona for Mearnes quail late in the year. If so, I'll PM you and maybe we can meet up again.

Rex, let me know when you come down this way. I am getting a new dog this summer but he won't be ready.
Mike, see you in Raton!
With this new machine I will have enough shells to shoot a gun or two loose! |

Not to gloat but I got this set up and with 15.5 grs of Green Dot and the DR 16s that came with it in Herters hulls (had to adjust the crimpers is all) I churned out 4 boxes in no time. This is my firts 9000, what a joy! |

I had a chance to get this a month ago from the seller in person and decided to pass. Glad to see it's going to a good home. |

Tim,
Sounds like that MEC found a good home. Now you've got me thinking about a 16 ga 9000.
