I'm looking for a 16Ga. hand priming tool. Please don't say eBay..... it's a pain in the back side to set up an account there. |

yes, that is what I wound like. I find it a little unnerving pounding a primer in with a hammer in brass hulls.... |

If you have a MEC reloader (in any gauge) for paper shells, they make an adaptor for use with large pistol primers that works nicely for repriming brass hulls. |

I don't think the adaptor is listed on the MEC website , you may have to call their parts department number. They were very helpful when I got mine about a year ago.
It is just a replacement for the regular shotgun primer station that allows the MEC reloader (I have a 600 Jr) to seat the smaller primer. The parts you need are:
1-326B cup
1-330 spring
1-331N pad
IIRC, it cost me about $20 with the shipping. It does a very good job, the vintage pliers type priming tools work, but they tend to put a dent the primers. |

Maybe we could lobby RCBS to make a run of their cowboy dies in 16ga... |
