Be sure you slow down with the press so as to save your wad-guide fingers. Replacements are very hard to find. I got a price from a local machine shop for them and for them to set it up and run any quantity we're looking at $40/wad guide.
I could use a couple of the guide fingers . I’ve not had any for close to two years now and seat the wads by hand . If you order some get me a couple .

Won’t be having his shop make them for $40/each. If need be I’ll split some 10g or 12g guides and put them together in the guide clamp. Should work.

If they’d hold up I’d be willing to give him $40 each for a couple !
