Stilly,
Mike over at Mike's Reloading bench has a fix for the thin piece of sheet metal (pawl?) over the shell plate. Its not mentioned on his website but was included in the directions when I bought his upgraded turret plate. It involves using a small center punch and punching 4 shallow "peens" into the plate around the square hole. It then positions the pawl so that it can't counter rotate, messing up the indexing. I'll pull mine off later today and post a picture for you.

Interesting. Well THAT is nice, but I thought the thing that keeps the rotation locked is the little tail that snaps down into the hole.

I HAD seen someone hit 4 corners on that pawl but I forgot what it was for, at the time I did not think that it would do me much good.

I have seen another mod where someone peened the hell out of that tip after cutting it a bit and it made the ejector reach over to the edge and actually seemed to work better at ejecting shells...
