reloading shotgun cartridges


Recommended Posts

I'm just getting into the reloading scene and have got a Lee turret press. Can you get dies to reload shotgun shells with it or do I need a more specific press for the job? I don't want to get too into it but wouldn't mind trying to make up some .410 shells with small shot for skeet. So far I've only seen fibre wads with 6 shot in the shops, everything else is plastic wad :yes:

You cannot buy presses for the .410 as far as im aware, you will have to load them by hand :angry: :unsure:

 

Well I have one!

 

Claygame sells them and there's a shed load on eBay.com (not the tuppenny-ha'penny eBay.co.uk!)

 

BUT, as BiB said '...load them by hand....' I can load them faster by hand because the presses are geared for the American crimped .410. Continental shells have a rolled turnover.

What about resizing them?

BiB, they can easily be resized with a Mec conditioner or a Supersizer.
