Dislodging a Wad Guide (SL900)

[Heavy Barrel]

I've always loaded 12ga on my SL900 ever since I got it. But something out of thin air told me to get a 20ga.

Well when looking the press over to see what all I would need to change when I get my conversion kit. I noticed that the wad guide is "stuck" in the wad swing arm.

I would try tapping it out with a dowel of similar diameter but where the wad swing arm is made from cast aluminum it would probably shatter the first time I tried tapping on the wad guide.

I'm open for suggestions.

You should be able to gently pry it out using a thin screwdriver blade. Use that to pry it up in multiple places around the circumference.
