MEC Wad Guide Bracket Features The MEC Outdoors Wad Guide Bracket is built to fit the Pre-82 Jr 82-85 600 Jr 700 Versamec and Sizemaster shotshell reloading presses keeping wads properly aligned as they are seated during the loading cycle. This 20 gauge bracket is a direct replacement for the older 453P part used in Versamec and 600 Jr presses manufactured prior to 1982 letting reloaders keep older equipment running without sourcing discontinued originals. Proper wad guidance is important for consistent shot column compression and crimp quality so a worn or broken guide bracket can directly affect load consistency. Replacing this component restores proper function to presses that have seen years of service. Because this bracket is gauge specific reloaders should confirm their press and gauge combination before ordering to ensure correct fitment. Keeping reloading equipment in good working order helps maintain consistent ammunition performance batch after batch which matters for both competitive and hunting loads. This bracket is a straightforward affordable way to extend the service life of a MEC press rather than replacing the entire unit. For reloaders running 20 gauge on these MEC models this bracket is a practical maintenance part to keep on hand.
