    As I was told when I was a child; your elders will make you smarter if you listen. Then when you are older your elders will teach you WISDOM.

    Yes 1-1/8 for both and the 3-1/4 dram also.
    Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H.L. Mencken

    The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.― H.L. Mencken

    Thanks 375Ruger. Can't call them new/unused vintage hulls anymore!

    They look good without that hole in the middle.

    Just bought a copy of Reloading Specialties Inc. steel shotshell reloading handbook Vol. 8, No. 1

    Recipes #67-69 for 12 gauge Activ 2-3/4" hulls using Alliant STEEL powder under SAM 1 wads containing steel pellets. 1465 to 1540 fps
    Also, have recipes for Activ 3" hulls. Recipe #62,63,70,71,78 for 3" Activ hulls.

    Wish I'd seen this a couple weeks ago before the early goose season kicked in. Hunting brackish tidal waters is rough on steel hull bases colored to look like brass.
