Top row: RCBS shell plate (not sure of press), Lee shell plate for loadmaster, Lee shellplate for pro 1000

Middle Row: obviously both RCBS, can't read the first card, and the second is a slip-in shell holder, but I can't remember the application.

Bottom row: RCBS shell plate (probably for the piggyback unit and the other fixed press using the same plate, can't remember the name) and 3 Mec type charge bars for their reloading presses

I was really looking for a little more info.
I think the outer two bars are for a MEC 650, red for lead and black for steel. I think the center bar is for a MEC Jr?
I think the Lee shell plates are for a Load Master and a Pro 1000.
I believe the RCBS shellplates are for a Ammomaster/Piggyback and a Auto 4x4.
The RCBS shellholders are for a TrimPro.

Anybody got any of these devices and knowledge about them?

Bars bored for powder bushings are designated 502 series for progressive tools and 302 series for single
stage tools. the number below either series indicates the amount of shot the bar will dispense.
Example: a 302-118 is a single stage charge bar and will drop 1-1/8 oz. of lead shot.

More info at the ordering page.

For older bars that don't accept bushings, this link is currently working

Keep in mind, MEC does not recommend any of the load data for the old bars, be used.

I have a Lee Pro 1000 and MEC 400, 600,and 650. dbosman got you covered on the MEC except that early charge bars were fixed charges and had letter codes on them. I have the chart for the MEC fixed charge bars if it helps you at all. If there is any more help you need PM me or just call.

Brassmagnet;

If you post the numbers/ letters or other identifying info from the items, I'm sure we can nail down the specifics of what everything is.

BrassMagnet , you are correct the RCBS shell plate in the clam shell at the top left is made for the Ammomaster,Piggyback, and the newer Pro2000.The one pictured in the lower left is for the 4X4.
I have an ammomaster , luckily RCBS uses the same numbering system on all their shell holders and shellplates.
