I know 8-10 years ago a bunch of us here sent emails to Starline begging them to produce 218 bee, 25-20 and 32-40 brass, but they refused. Luckily all can be formed easily enough, though 32-40 from...

I have the same problem - except that the ripped off doughnut piece is solidly jammed in the lower die. Never got a single useable gas check out of it. Emails - ignored, calls - unanswered, voice...

I've been wanting a Marlin 25-20 to go with my 32-20 and 218 Bee for years. I already have 100 rounds formed and loaded up ready for the occasion when I find one. Back when 32-20 was easy to get from...

I used them in my ROA the same as the guy you observed.
Then I got a Dick Dastardly ROA bullet mold, and started pan lubing them and did away with wads all together.

You can use that same mold, just adjust your seat/crimp die a little further in. It's not mandatory to crimp on the groove, in fact all new molds I get I carefully adjust until the bullet is a few...
