Redding T-7 Head question

[Dermako]

Been running a T-7 for 10+ years and have several extra heads, no problems there.
Was originally thinking of getting another single stage press and then had a brain storm.
Just get another T-7 and life is super easy.

In my search I have stumbled across this one with this head.
Have never seen one like it with the slots and wonder what they are for.
Anyone know?

Slots are 180 apart and apear to be on center line of 2 die holes.
Did Redding make a powder hopper or other item to mount on top of the head?

Just curious as I have never seen anything like it or heard of any attachment for a head.

Normally they are for the proprietary primer feed mechanism for that press. That sure looks like a T-6, rather than a T-7 to me.

You are correct. Kinda.
Actually its a Model 25 but was unofficially called the T-6.
Contacted Redding and got the answer pretty quick.

In watching my sheckles & ruples(sp?)I'd think you'd have better luck buying a new single stage press than a used t7 but...
