I agree with Hidalgo and SodakJim a Mec 600 Junior will work great for reloading 12 ga hunting loads. If you look around you can usually find a used Mec 600 Junior for not too much money. I don't think 3" shells are necessary for killing pheasants at 40 yards. Ballistic Products Inc will have everything you need to reload your hunting loads. Check out the reloading data for the Federal Gold Medal 2-3/4" plastic target hull. It is a great hull for heavy 2-3/4" hunting loads. It has much more room in it than the Win AA or the Rem STS so you can reload heavier and faster loads at safe pressures. I have killed a bunch of coyotes over the years with 1-1/2 oz of shot in the Federal Gold Medal hulls.
