Recently, I modified this lens to fit my EOS, by replacing adapter flange.
There is still 0.41mm to go..
Could someone tell me how to reach the focussing stops (are they under the rubber grip?) so that I can adjust it or remove it ?
Thanks in advance!

Impossible to answer your query as you do not specify which 200/2.8 lens you are messing about with. Is it the original breech mount version, or the nFD version which is a rear focus lens? The two types of lenses have completely different internal mechanical construction.

It is original breech mount, with double helix.
