When I had a shell jam in the collet and it wouldn't release, it was due to a rusted primer not ejecting or the primer drop tube going down too far in the fork under the base.

I had 3 MEC's, 1 hydrolic, 1 9000, and 1 grabber. They took up too much bench room. Lucked into a Spolar Gold hydrolic with 12, 20, and 28 gauge die sets at a local auction. Takes about 15 minutes to change dies. Never any adjustments needed after changing dies. Spolars have many similarties to PW progressive machines.

I managed to get the hull out by moving the ring back with a screwdriver and pliers to get the hull out. A major use of tools for me I'm just getting back from quail hunting in Georgia and brought back a big case of gout that finally is on the mend so I'll mess with this again shortly.
