Just aquired a gold mine of reloading supplies. If I were to outfit a MEC 600 Jr. to reload steel shot, would I just need to buy the correct charge bar? Is there anything else I would need? Also any hint/suggestions will be helpful thanks in advance.

when reloading steel shot each powder drop needs to be weighed if using allient steel powder.

Can you go into more detail....
Why would you measure each powder drop, you can use the same powder for lead and steel correct?

steel uses different wads also. I advise you to get this book Lyman Shotshell Reloading Handbook 5th Edition
$17.99
I know caballas has it. Has a whole section just on steel shot reloading.

I think I have some steel wads left if you are in need of some 12ga just pm me.
The wads I have you can use Blue dot powder with. they come with the reloading specs inside the package.
