If you pull the bolt that holds the mast in place, and lower the press 1/4", you will see there is room to drill and tap and new hole in the mast. This will lower the whole machine, and still allow adjustment back to 2 3/4" or 3". You will have to re-adjust the drop tubes.

I have a 650 with this done to it, and it works perfectly.

I also have a 650 for 12 ga and a 650 for .410. the only negative thing about these machines is they don't re size without a separate attachment and a separate operation.. I reloaded thousands of shells with no problem shooting them in Parkers, but they wont fit well in modern guns and the empty shells have to be resized before reloading in a separate operation. It takes about two minutes extra per box with a re sizer. BUY A GRABBER THE NEXT STEP UP AND YOU WILL BE A LOT HAPPIER, DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE I MADE.
