Adjusta-Drop Charge Bar
Model-SS
BPI's ADJUSTA-DROP Charge Bar for MEC single-stage reloaders eliminates the need for a costly collection of bushings and charge bars. The ADJUSTA-DROP Charge Bar is fully adjustable for shot and powder drops that would normally require bushings and bars and has an attractive black anodized finish with engraved adjustment scales that are highly visible. The entire charge bar body is meticulously machined aluminum with a zinc-plated carbon steel threaded rod.
NEW FOR 2024: The Adjusta-Drop Charge Bar now comes fully assembled. Please note that the user should not have to remove or tighten any of the threaded hardware on the Charge Bar. If you feel there is an issue with the hardware, please contact BPI customer service prior to attempting to make any adjustments.
MEC Rubber Grommet (#130304G) and Brass Washer (#130304W): The Adjusta-Drop Charge Bar is designed to utilize MEC original rubber grommets and brass washers . These parts are essential for accurate drops in any charge bar. They must be placed inside the threaded cups of the measure assembly in order to prevent leakage. BPI sells these specific parts on our website.
(Note: It is important that the Brass Washer (#130304W) is installed with the barbs pointing upward AND that the Rubber Grommet (#130304G) is installed over the barbs of the Brass Washer. Press with slight downward pressure on the Rubber Grommet once it is installed. It is important to check your shot/powder bottle threads for any flashing, which might disrupt an otherwise tight seal. Smooth out and deflash the threads. This is where the molding lines come together. Once deflashed, the bottle screws into the measure assembly completely to seat on top of the grommet.)
MADE IN USA: ADJUSTA-DROP Charge Bar is made entirely right here in Minnesota: Quality, value, and American-made pride come with every single ADJUSTA-DROP Charge Bar.

Works great | 11/23/2022 | |
Works very well. I have 2 of the older, now defunct, Canadian adjustable bars, and these new BPI bars are beefier. I am quite happy with it. I will be getting another. If you stay with the same loading all the time, they are not really necessary, but if you like to experiment with different loads, they are the way to go. | ||

Replaces sliced bread, aerosol cheese and the zipper | 2/15/2022 | |
This thing takes #1 place in the better than category. If you are looking for a universal charge bar for a single stage press search no longer. Snatch one up when they are back in stock, you will not be sorry. No more swapping bushings. Drops SUPER CONSISTENT weights of both powder and shot. Does not leak at all when using fine grain powders. Extremely well made. I am not getting paid for this review although I probably should be. But it really is this good. | ||

Ajdusta Drop | 11/29/2021 | |
This bar worked pretty good. It was a little finicky to get adjust using #1 bismuth and Longshot powder. As they say these bars dont do that well drop under #4 shot but I found it to be within 1 or 2 shot within weight each time. Sure did speed up the process dropping about 160 loads between #1&3 shot. Powder side was very consistent. I would suggest not to put too much shot on this bar as it had a tendency to struggle pushing the bar open. I would maybe do about a 1/4 of a small bottle at a time. | ||
