Anything special I should know about reloading Winchester cf hulls loaded with rifled slugs? I was practically given 35 rounds today along with 3 boxes of 1-1/8 #6 wcf boxes. Woot! |

Bdog, you must have deduced I thrive on pain. I read you can do it but a skiv device makes it a lot easier. |

I have done it but the results where always disappointing. Even reforming them with a heated case mouth tool for roll crimping leaves much to be desired. And after all that messing around the crimps suck. |

If I try cutting them down to 2.5 hulls, anyone got any short CF hull recipes? I just looked and don't have a one. |
