ABSTRACT:
An adjustable charge bar for a shotgun shell reloading machine includes an elongated body having longitudinally spaced powder and shot receiving slots open at the top and bottom of the body, and a longitudinally movable slider in each slot forms variable volume powder and shot receiving chambers respectively with an inner end of the respective slot. An adjusting nut is rotatably mounted at each end of the body and is threadingly engaged by a rod extending from a respective slider such that rotation of the nut adjusts the longitudinal position of the respective slider in the body and thereby varies the volume of the respective chamber. Each nut has a core portion into which the respective rod extends in threading engagement and a sleeve portion carrying scale markings alignable with reference marking on the body. The sleeve portion is capable of assembly into fixed relationship with the core portion, after the respective slider has been moved to a predetermined position by rotation of the core portion, to position the scale markings on the sleeve part in a desired relationship with the reference marking on the body.
