OK...a couple days ago bumped up to an egg from my old reloader...and it has been overfeeding...(pushing extra balls past the ball detent causing me to chop)...and i have a 2k3 bko so i cant buy a after market detent to stop it!!! the o ring currently in there isnt keeping the balls back worth an turd and i'm choping like crazy from my egg throwing the paint down the neck...what the heck can i do??? its startin to make me mad Mad

this week there's be 4 posts of this. cut a sliver of macroline thats the size of the oring, and put the macroline inside the oring to enforce it

If your feeling really daring drill and tap it for cocker detents on either side of the breach, that should eliminate all doubble feeding.

ok thanks...i did a search and didnt find anything..so i put the slit of macroline in the black peice that the oring rests in?

you put the slit of macroline inside the oring. and then you put the oring where it rests, the macroline is there to support, not to replace

ya i know that..so i shavce off a thin piece of macroline...put it in the black thing then put the oring in so that the macroline is boosting the oring up???

sorry to have so many questions but i jsut wanna get it right...and it sounds like you telling me to put the macroline inside the little oring making no sense lol

you put the macroline INSIDE the oring. your not putting it side by side.

"If you suspect double feeding then first off check your o ring detent. Make sure it is still there. If not call up ICD and get a new one. If it is there and you have a egg2 with y board and up then here is a little trick. Take a piece of macroline, cut a very very small piece, around the same size as the o ring. Then stick the piece inside the o ring. This will reinforce the stock o ring detent.

i was just tryign to look for hte pic but i can't find it

ok that just confused me even more...OK do i cut a flat slit of the macro and put it in the bottoma of the black thingy..then put the detent o-ring on top boosting it up..or do i make another little ring from the macroline...I DONT GET WHAT YOU MEAN BY "you put the oring INSIDE the o-ring" does this mean you actually stick a circle of the oring inside the tiny litlle o-ring(detent)...plase tell me in xtreme detail..your just confusing me more...AHA i think i see..so you cut a slit of the end of the macro..then put it in the inner area of the oring...supporting it and making it stiffer?

ok. now, put the piece of MACROLINE(not oring) inside of the ORING itself. so itll look like a double O( o+ O=@) then putside inside your deten holder
