Lord Geordie Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 John! While your in Newcastle, go to steve smiths! Loads of 20g shells in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo33 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) go to john at folkestone. +1. You will find reloading 20g shells a pita as the plastic seems to stretch. Inconsistent crimps and many won't fit in the chamber or eject properly. As Cook says above John does a bulk buy on ready primed cases that makes it cheaper than buying new cases and primers separately. Also speeds up the loading process And shived means the shell mouth is thinned to aid crimping. Its another reason why they don't reload well as they tend to split on the crimp cut lines.
