Sometimes the wad with shot gets pulled back up out of the hull when you raise the handle. It just happens. With the 9000, the shell plate starts to move and you have a mess. With the Gabber--you can neutralize the problem with a minimum of fuss. You gotta go nice and easy with the 410 hull on a MEC and the Grabber allows this precision. Speaking from experience..........
Yeah you may very well be right . I have a friend that has a used 650 410 that I may try and liberate from him .
