I purchased a mec junir shot shell reloader at a show. I loaded 500+ rounds of low brass skeet killer rounds with out a problem. I was working on a turkey load when I ran into a problem. The high brass hulls stuck on the first station. The used primers popped out fine but the hull did not want to come off the former. I did a little reading and adjusted the cam on the right hand side all of the way down. That helped but did not cure the problem. I then unscrewed the silver tube to get the hull off. After running the arm up and down a few dozen time to figure out how things worked, I grabbed a couple of 7/16 wrenches and turned the nut on top of what I would call the ejector pin loose and wound the ejector pin down. A bout the time I got to the point the hull would be pushed out of the tube, the pin fell off. Tomorrow I am off to buy a new longer bolt. My questions are
1) does anyone know how long the factory bolt was?
2) Do I need to get a grade five bolt for this. I can see what I think is the grade five headstamp on the top of the old bolt. The cam rides the top of the bolt and has worn the top of the bolt shiney smooth
