I recently got a junior mec 600 shotgun shell reloader and it came with three different size bushings one has 29 one has 30 and one has 32. I have remington wads and im filling them with 7 1/2 shot. I was wondering which one to put into the reloader? What do you think? Also forgot to add I am shooting 12 gauge 2 3/4 inch shells
Eastern,
You left out a very important detail.
What kind of powder are you using?
IMO, you shouldn't try any reloading until you get some kind of instruction. Perhaps MEC has an owners manual they could send you, or you could download one.
There are also websites of powder manufacturers that contain complete recipes for reloading different shotshell applications.
I don't know if this was an oversight of yours or if you are new to this, but you are not asking the right questions yet. Please go into this a little slower, with more preparation. You sure don't want anyone hurt.

Yeah Sorry that was a pretty huge thing to leave out. I am using Alliant Unique powder. Also ,I figure I should add this now, I am using Winchester Shotgun Primers. Thankyou

You can find the inf you are looking for on the MEC website. I recommend you get a scale to check the weight of the powder your busing is dropping. I also hope you are using a reloading manual to guide you. If you do not have one, go to Alliant's website, they have reloading data you can use.
