[QUOTE="EKing, post: 4072095, member: 43282"] Go to Ballistic Products website ballisticproducts.com and buy three books. Advantages Manual Slug Loading and Field Application Buckshot Loading Manual This website (BPI) is also where you can buy all the hulls, wads, fillers and other tools you'll need to make shotshells. I have played around with the Lee 7/8oz slug and found a combo that worked in my Beretta A300. It is a new, factory primed Fiocchi hull, Clays powder, the X12X gas seal finished off with a roll crimp. I too bought the Lee Load-All thinking it would be good enough. It is if you only want to fold crimp and are making birdshot loads. It won't drop buckshot or slug loads; just load them by hand. This is, if you start with a new, factory primed hull. $18.79 for 100 new factory primed hulls. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ballisticproducts.com/Fiocchi-12ga-275-16mm-clear-UNskived-bag_100/productinfo/0641216US/[/URL] Haven't made any buckshot loads yet but those will also be roll crimped like my slug loads so the Lee press doesn't get used at all. Only my roll crimp tool is really needed. I also bought their hull trim tool to cut hulls down to 2 1/2", 2", 1 3/4" or shorter. I haven't played with this yet but I can make my own short, low pressure, low recoil shells. Here's pic from the Slug Loading book.
