This is a reload of a previously uploaded video, I took out some of the finer details on what I was doing so hopefully this video will not get taken off of KZfaq

Have you seen Tyler McDavid's curling iron trick for removing a star crimp in a fired shell to allow for a roll crimp?

Very nice video......but you should use a press drill and a little bit of WD-40 oil to get the best results when roll crimping.

I've been metallic reloading for quite a while now. Just getting geared up to start reloading shot shells. I've been watching a lot of Shotgun Scientists and BRO, tons of great knowledge there. First time watching your channel. Really enjoyed the video. Subscribed.

Thanks. I watch BRO and Shotgun Scientists a lot too. They’ve never steered me wrong. Taufledermaus has some good stuff occasionally too

Metallic as in full brass hulls? If so where do you buy yours everywhere I look they are sold out 25 hulls for like around $30 +-. “track of the wolf” is $8.30 EACH brass hull and “rocky mountain cartridge” (20 hulls) for $125 2-5/8” and (20 hulls) 3-1/2” $158!

Enjoyed your reloading video. I also reload 12, 20 & 410 shotgun shells with 3 old MEC 600jr presses. One thing that freed up some of my work bench was buying a MEC Jig Fixture (#1008958). I mounted this one jig on the bench & can mount 1 press at a time (& store the other presses under the work bench).

For me storing them all on one board is better, so I can swap out the board for my metallic cartridge reloading board with just 2 screws, But the jig is a cool idea. Thanks for watching!

Fascinating. Hope to get into reloading one day. I enjoy learning new things as well. For now, my “spare” money is going to my guns, ammo, supplies, and classes. Thanks for sharing. I enjoy your videos and TaoFliedermaus (sp? 🤣) too. And your basement!

The basement is old- my house was built in 1830, fieldstone and granite throughout. It’s cool but leaks when it rains… have to run a de-humidifier 24/7, it takes a lot of electricity

MG42 wad works nice for steel BB. It works in taper and straight wall hulls...but if you're using it in taper wall hulls be sure to use mica wad slick...it'll hold an ounce of those crossman BBs

I was wondering, if I have a ton of Universal Shells for 12g, they are 7.5 shot. Could I open the crimp and weigh the birdshot that’s in it. Once I get that weight, can I just load it with 00 Buck at the same weight? Would that be an option? Thank you

@@SHOT_GUNNER technically yes. Usually buckshot is loaded hotter (more powder) and sometimes depending on the size of the buckshot it may or may not stack well inside the shotcup,

I have only used them for target shooting so far. I don’t think there’s a Pugh bbs to be super effective at waterfowl- those usually use a #4-#9 pellet which is smaller so you get more shot. The patterns on these were pretty good, may be ok…

Iver johnson are harder to find and harder to find parts for. I’ve never even seen one near me. I’m good without a .380 1911. I’d buy another Sig Sauer P238 if I could find one for a reasonable price, but they’re too expensive now
