Today at the office, I'm talking with a guy who's moving, about random gun stuff. The conversation started after watching him fiddle with his concealed carry holster, which is another story all together.
Well he's moving out of town this Friday and has 2 medium boxes of gun stuff that the movers missed and he's not real interested in packing it in his car. Asks if I would be interested in taking a look and seeing if there is anything I would want, told him absolutely and went by his house on my way home.
Box #1- Mec 76 grabber brand new never used, some surface rust inside. Had been taken out of box but never mounted or used. Bottles while old still have the plastic seal over the metal caps.
Box #2- Adjustable charge bar for Mec also new brand new in box Redding "match" grade pm lyman scales also new in box 2#'s of blue dot 2#'s of imr something I don't use 1k federal 209 primers couple of used loading blocks and some Lee 1000 parts in a box
Asked the guy how much and he replied, "just use it and it's free." I thanked him and ran home to stare at my goodies.
That makes today an awesome day. If anybody has a lee 1000 send me a message as I have some free stuff for you.

Give me a place to stand and a long-enough lever, and I will invariably break the lever.

Cool ! You hate to see someone seemingly give up, but getting it to a good home is important. Have fun !

Awesome Score!!!!
I hope you got his new address. Send him a good bottle of Tennessee Whisky as a thank you and house warming gift.

That's actually a great idea Mule. Instead of Tennessee whiskey we will send some Ky bourbon since I live in the heart of bourbon country.
Hacker if you send me a cell phone number, I will text you pictures of everything to see if you even want the stuff. Half of it I'm not even sure what it is.
1st time score like this, while I do reload shotshells quite a bit I was secretly hoping for an old Hollywood, or green machine inline progressive when he said there was a new press in the boxes.
