MEC 830020 Wad Guide Fingers Set - 20 Gauge Reloading Component

The MEC 830020 Wad Guide Fingers provide precise wad alignment and consistent seating depth for 20-gauge shotshell reloading operations. This replacement component ensures proper wad placement during the reloading cycle, eliminating common feeding issues that can compromise shell quality and performance.

What Makes This Different

Unlike generic aftermarket alternatives, these factory-manufactured wad guide fingers maintain the exact tolerances required for MEC progressive reloaders. The precision-machined design ensures consistent wad compression and alignment, reducing the variability that leads to inconsistent patterns and velocity spreads. Each finger features the proper spring tension and geometry to handle various wad types without deformation or misalignment.

Key Features

• Factory OEM component engineered specifically for MEC 20-gauge reloaders
• Precision-machined steel construction with corrosion-resistant finish
• Maintains proper wad compression for consistent shell performance
• Compatible with plastic and fiber wads in 20-gauge configurations
• Spring-loaded design provides consistent pressure across all wad types
• Direct replacement for worn or damaged original components
• Reduces wad skipping and improper seating common with worn fingers

Proper wad guide finger function directly impacts shotshell consistency and performance downrange. These components maintain the precise alignment necessary for uniform powder compression and wad seating depth, critical factors in achieving consistent velocities and tight patterns. Whether loading target loads for competitive shooting or hunting loads for field use, properly functioning wad guide fingers ensure each shell meets the same exacting standards.
