So I am getting my thumb ripped apart on my weak hand load with my lifting gate on my SLP and my SX3. I tried the mod like TRUBL and it is kicking my butt. I checked out the T.E. Kelly link and saw that he took down more but when you take down to much it causes the shell to hit the top of mag tube and get hung up. It looks like TE Kellys SLP has a another little piece of metal to stop this from happening. I talked to a pretty savvy guy at MG Nationals this weekend and he did the same thing and had the same problem so he had to dremel(ever so lightly) the top of the mag tube to round it off. Does anyone know where to buy more lifting gates, that I can start over with, that I can tig wield it like 00BULLIT. I definitely think this is the way to go for those of us with fat thumbs.
Thanks
