I am running a late M2 with the long shoe and I have recently acquired a bean sieve with the round holes in it, I have always just run the regular adjustable one and have gotten a pretty good grain sample . What are the good and bad of running the one with the round holes? Looks to me that it may cut down on capacity. What are you guys thoughts on this?

grandpa always ran a sieve like that in his 6620 deere. it gave a really nice sample, but a guy he used to cut for claimed it threw too many out the back. Id try both, and see which one you like best

I am guessing it will screw with the air flow?

If you want clean grain buy a cleaner rather than risk loosing yield. My 2 cents.

I wish they made scour-kleens for those models.

I ran beans so thick with waterhemp in places that i couldnt see the rows. Elevator doesnt seem to care so im fine with it. Only reason id want super clean grain is for storage or saving for seed.
