Think it may be a Herters, not marked. Any ideas?

I agree, just dug my old SJ out. Do you have the shot and powder throwers for it.
I'm waiting for a 16ga, wads and hulls to fall in my lap so I can put both dies sets to use.
If you need instructions, bushing tables, etc., I can copy and forward your way.

This one actually is not mine, belongs to a guy I know who got it an an estate sale. Thanks for the offer of the literature for it, he may find it useful if he decides to load with it, I know I would.

Mine came to me via a neighbor whose father had passed away quite a few years earlier. Her mom was cleaning out some clutter and thought I might interested in some "reloading stuff" (that's a very broad category). She had the press with all the parts, 1-1/8oz shot bushing, along with the instructions in sheet protectors, a box of 12gr felt wads, and box of 12ga over shot card wads. There was also a 12ga bore brush wrapped with steel wool...reckon barrel leading may of reared it's head on occasion. I still need to sit down and look at the bushing chart and see charge weights of what powders (that are still produced) the powder bushing is set up for. There was also a 1962 ed of the Speer No 5 manual with a 12 page shotgun loading section complete with 1-1/2 pages of data covering .410 through 10ga. Certainly a lot less detailed than a new Lyman manual.

I have a stash of cards etc for 16 ga if you would share the 16 ga section ........

Probably 8-900 rounds worth .
