You can reload almost anything with a Mec 600. If it has a primer feed that is a plus. shot in quantity is as i said expensive. A thousand wads are more than 20 bucks..Shotshell primers are usually good for 30-40 yrs unless they have gotten wet(you'll be able to tell that if in the original boxes..1000 primers now is about 30 bucks..and older powder? I have powder that has been stored right that is more than 60 yrs old. Still good. .Red dot has ...red flakes in it..green has green flakes...blue dot..well you get it..700X has yellow flakes.. If the powder is in a can that says Unique or 7625, Clays or whatever..it probably is. Most reloaders of shotshells usually keep the powder in it's containers. Small quantities of shotshell powder goes on the lawn as fertilizer. Check out what the guy has. You may be pleasantly surprised. Get a discount.offer him a 100 if it looks to be worth it. But remember prices on new stuff. To give you an idea..I just bought a bunch of stuff today. One of the items was an eight pound can of 4350..unopened from 1980..for 10 dollars..and the guy threw in a couple of pounds of 4064 with the Rockchucker kit I got from him. Lotta loading in that powder.
