The Chevron, as I recall, was killed off by a much better unit.  No moving parts.  Kind of like two funnels inside each other.  I think the name was the Freeloader, but I could be wrong about that.

Re Freeloader:
  I have one and am still using it.  It is a "china" salad bowl with a hole ground in the center of it glued (originaly) to a plastic kitchen funnel with the pour spout reamed to fit on the Hume tube.  The tube is fastened to the link and the motion combined with the slope of the bowl stands the cases up so they can drop through the hole into the tube.

My understanding was that the Chevron was discontinued, when several family members were in the shop, when a guy set off a large amount of powder, that killed and injured the owners in the blast, my Chevron feeders have always worked as good as any body elses, JMO, George.

George that's what I had come up with doing a bit more looking. From what I seen so far with it I'm going to be very happy, wished the motor cover that came with it had been original . Do you have a shell plate for 9mm if so could I get the hole diameter that they used
