    Am I doing something wrong for 3” shells?

    Both my load all 2 and my new mec presses have issues when loading 3” hulls where the hull buckles or squished down forming a ring at the bottom. For the 12 gauge I’ve tried 3/4” pvc as a support but...

    Soft Lead for .690 round ball?

    Recently came into possession of some .690 pure lead RB (I believe for Muzzleloaders), would I have any issues using these for deer hunting out of a 12 gauge? It would be out of a rifled barrel.
