People are so wasteful with plastic shotshells. I REALLY appreciate your video and im glad to see there are people re-using this wasted plastic. You can get 6 or 7 loadings usually from plastic shotshells before they are waste.

Stumbled on this. Nice work sir. I love your style. You dont need a tool!!!!!!!!!!!!

Little tip. Get a piece of wood the same size as the inside of your shell. Drill a small all the way through right in the center. Use a small Phillips or some other rod or punch to knock out the primer. It speeds up the process a lot. A long socket with a short extension works great for setting new primers. I always used a rubber hammer. It crazie how fast loading like this can be after a while. LOL. Thanks for the video and bringing back some great memories of my youth.

An ordinary flat washer inlet into the wood block would give 360° support to the base - help prevent a possible angling bend. Clearance hole bored through the block for spent primers. A 1"x1" flat bar steel inlet likewise would help ensure flush seating of primers. There are potential situations requiring removal of live primers - few I grant - but doing so requires very careful movements. You can remove live primers with very slow and gradually increasing pressure. HOWEVER, in most cases, it's better to simply fire the primer and remove it spent. Tapping the primer into place with a punch and hammer is a safe procedure. Lee Loaders have used this technique for decades. You will hear about the rare occasion of a primer going off during seating from someone who says "it happened to me" - and it can happen (rarely), but those rare instances are more in the nature of scareing someone than causing harm as long as ordinary safety precautions are followed. Using a hodgepodge of cases means that internal volume is going to vary. This isn't an issue if mild to moderate loads are adhered to, but anything approaching maximum loads needs to be worked toward gradually in identical brand cases. A safe load in one case can become an overpressure load in a case with smaller internal volume. But this isn't an issue with mild to moderate loads. As with most things, these kinds of videos should be viewed as instructional for SHTF scenarios, and not as a recommended technique for routine reloading. Black powder is much more forgiving than smokeless. Equal volumes of black powder and shot was referred to as a "square load", or ideal, but adjustments were easily accomodated by the shotguns. If someone wants to use a hodgepodge of cases, they should restrict that activity to using black powder or substitutes as this video is doing. The final compression taps on the lead shot, I would avoid. This will deform the shot and give erratic patterns. Wax works but water glass glue is better - alternatively, Duco hobby cement.

Your way of loading is way better than how I do it. Thanks for showing that. I'm gonna steal your idea !

This was my first shotgun shell reloader back in the late 70s, LOL. Only I drilled holed in my 2x4 to hold the shells and for the primers to fall through. Loaded a lot of shells like this.

From my point of view why do you remove the wood dowel between decapping and recapping? I don't see you examining the base wad.

The primer should be recessed into the shell face. If you're going to do it like you show, you could just hollow out a small spot on the block to accommodate the primed area then wack away as much as you like. I know it's relatively hard to set off a primer but why take the chance? Some shooters will find that shells loaded without resizing the brass first makes them very hard to chamber. That's certainly true in several of my guns.

Great video! Great information!👍🏾😀❤️🇺🇸

Nice one thank you twofeathers good lesson very much appreciated

I use a small piece of wood with a 13/16 hole for the shell & a 3/8 inside that, to hold the shell & tap the primer out..weigh my charge, wad, roll crimp, or just recrimp with needle nose turn the shell upside down & press back together, add a little super glue to help hold it..lots of them look almost factory!! Edit: Also use a thin cardboard shot card for the crimp so the crimp can glue to that.

That's slicker than a frozen dog. Thanks for sharing.

wow a great video

Thank you sir for the good ideas.

Good job little buddy. I got set of car heart gloves like that tere really warm .

This is great! I'll pay you for a few of those wooden dowel with the hole center.

Have you ever a primer set off by doing this and would it be the same with a cardboard circle in wax and then over the powder one and one over the shot?

Damn no re sizing I mean if they all came from your gun no need but from random guns yeah im re sizing other then that this is a good survival tool

Child's play. 👍🏼 Easy and great

U could use the bottom of a shell as a punching tool to make wads, instead of using patches of napkins ....

Speaking from a purely survivalist perspective, would animal fat also work as a sealant instead of wax or would it not seal properly?

now that was interesting never saw that done before.

awesome!

ill have to try that! I like that little hammer

Great that you share, but is not necessary seen the same thing over and over to understand. Quick is better.

Really cool!

Do they chamber and extract ok with pump or semi-auto?

Are those copperhead bb gun bbs? This was a great video

SHTF special. Awesome.

Great video, no need for $600 of fancy equipment and plastic. Do you do 12 ga. slugs ?

What’s that hand tool he uses for charging the shells? I can’t find any hand tools for smokeless powder

Be easy to buy a Lee load all and mount it to a board

Only problem I see is that those shells are fire formed for different guns. I wonder, did you have any issues with chambering or stuck shells in your gun?

Sir how many times we can recycle the shell?

how much powder,how much shot,and what kind of shot?

how much powder....grams????

What do you use to resize the hulls in the field?

I will have to try this!

Does the wax foul up the barrel any???

Do you cut off the excess plastic after sealing?

It might almost be easier to buy a lee load all 2, screw it down to a board, but a couple large rubber footed C claps and clamp the board right down to the edge of the tail gate.

don't you have to close the crimping or do these shells not have it?

this is so cool

Are those 1 peice or 2 Peice hulls? I see the wood dowel damaging the 2 peice hulls because the seem and possibly the 1 peice because they are tapered inside! In ac pinch probably would be ok but why with all the tools available today??

Interesting video. I've seen this done where the reloader guy cut off the crimp, but you left yours on. Do they always seat nicely when you put them in the chamber? Also - I like the idea of using a cloth patch rather than an expensive paid for fibre wad. What chance the patch will catch fire and start a forest fire? I tried reloading with a dismantled new shell the other day using PYRODEX instead of the nitro powder. I used them in my side by side and the recoil of firing the first barrel dislodged the over shot card and the damned shot ran out down the barrel.... Not great. maybe your cloth patch would work better, and you certainly have more space to pack it in with leaving teh crimp area on the case.

Has anyone Chrono these rounds using Pyrodex... Thinking about trying this I'd like to use it for turkey hunting or get steel shot after duck and Goose but I'm trying to figure out what the Carano says compared to what I already use

how much powder do i put into the shot gun shell

What tool are you measuring your powder with?

Nice job very well done can you answer a couple of questions i see you are loading hi and low brass can you tell me what is your charge grains of powder and shot also are you using black powder or something else thanks for sharing

Are those BB's you're using for shot?

Thought only brass shells were "reloadable" '-'

How would using duct tape over the crimp work?

What is the charge and how much is the weight of the bb’s?

Very cool.

😊😊😊

How much powder did you use

Could u use hot glue gun to seal or even pine tar glue would maybe be good for shit hits the fan

Where we get the parts which u use like fire pin. And gun powder Please tell me

How many grains of powder did you use

Where are you getting your primer

Where do y'all get primer caps

What powder do you use?

nice method

cool method

کار اون دستکش چیه ؟ فکر میکنی این اشتباه برای تو مفید هست ؟

Can I use candle wax ?

Thanks for the nice demo. But wouldn't a tong be useful to hold the hull while you reload it? (in the slight chance that gun powder/primer goes off and blows off one's fingers).

What did you use for patches? Old T-shirt

How mush powder would I use in a 20 gauge shell

hi. I am new to reloading and don't have any of the kit, is it possible just to buy shells with the same weight of shot you want to put in, take out the shot and replace it with your own shot and then crimp it again

I could handle it till the wax pouring.

how many grains of powder? and what kind of powder?

this is good if you are bored with nothing to do.

Be careful hitting that that hard I have heard if you pack it to hard it will blow up on you

What about resizing the brass?

Get a Lee Loader

Those bbs will annihilate your forcing cone and barrel!

อยากได้ไพรเมอ ดินปืน ตะกั่ว

why do you need to seal it can't you just re crimp it?

Dont use a hammer on the primer ...bang bang = boom! YOUR whole proceedure looks dangerouse as heck and primitive.

I recognize that gay blue camo. I too enjoy wearing my gore tex even when they're entirely shit quality. At least big navy gave me the green type 3 so I feel a little less stupid. God I hate blue camo.

I just got my Xring field reloading kit!!!! I love it so far!!! I just need a few more items and then find a good recipe for Pyrodex RS powder and 00 buckshot!!!
