    No-Rise + HALO... Did you have to sand neck?

    I've got a new HALO-B which I upgraded the shell and drive from an A at the IAO. I'd prefer not to sand it like the old shell as it took a good while.

    My "No-rise" arrived today and the B barely fits into the first 1/8th of an inch of the feed neck.

    I'm wondering who else is running a no-rise and B setup and if you had to sand the HALO or if you just used a screw driver to expand the neck a little. It's looking like I'm going to have to break out the sand paper - but want to check for sure.

    Thanks,

    -Calvin (getting the pins in the wrist out tomorrow!)

      i didnt have to sand mine.

      but it was tight.

      but thats the way i like it, nice and tight.


      from the judge in the WDP v Sp case.... " i find it significant that aside from a somewhat limited notebook produced by gaston, the four named inventors offer NO documentation of there work or there contributions to the conception or reduction to practice of the claimed invention"

              mine also needed a little sanding. Am waiting on blue shells now...will see if they will fit without it.

                  No sanding. Tight fit. Also noticed if I wanted to use my Revy I have to wrap electrical tape around it.

                      No sanding here but it is real tight and could use just a little. But remember that Odyssey made them big for that reason. So you could sand them a bit. And too big is far better than too small.

                          Halo-b sanding...

                          Mine was already sanded a little to fit in the timmies' neck, but it was STILL a tight fit. Now it's just right (until I inevitably screw it up).
