Question about an old MEC 600

[fatelk]

Does anyone have an older MEC 600 shotshell reloader? If so, could you tell me the diameter of the hole in the wad guide bracket, that holds the wad guide? Thank you.

One inch.

Inside diameter, or outside diameter?
I'm trying to determine if I can use some 410 parts on a 12 ga loader without buying more parts, and the OD of the wad guide I have is exactly one inch, and would fall right through if that's the ID of a 12 ga bracket. I don't have a 12 ga loader to measure right now.

The hole the wad guide fingers sit in, the one the silver knurled piece drops into, is 1.0045" ID.
