I love my automate. I have 2 12's a 20, 28, and 410 hooked up.
Mine is a second generation Jim Binn model. I would guess the mec. style would work as well as it is Mr. Binns design except for a change in the button usage. 500 rounds per hour plus if speed is what you want. I like not having the sore shoulder and back I used to get with loading session. Set up was easy, if you followed
the directions, don't know about mec's. It's quite, clean and easy to use.

1000srt8....I will guess your machines are not adjusted right. Every one I know who has the automate just loves them. When I was setting my units up I found going to the 28ga was a bit of a pain. Making the loader correct fixed the problem. Don't know if it will help you but adding the back braces takes the racking out of.... ANY.... 9000G loader and I think keeps them in adjustment. Give us more of the problems you are having, maybe we can help. Also try calling mec. They have a great first aid unit.
