Any one have issues with the area circled on the picture attached.
The Bullet Knockout Link keeps scraping and missing the Push Out Rod. I had to return mine. Any one have any little alterations that may help.

Would it be possible to loosen up the two bolts at the top and align the bottom of the return bar with the push rod pin.Just a thought, it may or may not work.

Not on backwards is it?

I didn't have that issue. Mine would push the boolit out all the way of the sizing die. I ended up welding ina small rod to make it push the boolit all the way out. Works great now.

I had to wrap a piece of smashed brass tubing around the piece you circled so the bullet could be pushed up. Frustrating, I know.

Manufacturing defect, the bullet knockout link was bowed out on the sides. Received my new one and new the difference right away.
