Hello StriperCrazy, here is the loading data card that comes with the slugs:

If you do not presently have a roll crimper then start looking for one but a good one like Lyman, the only well made one!
In the mean time I suggest you drop the powder charge by 1 1/2 gr and see if you can fold crimp and if yes then you still can gradually come up 1/2 gr at a time!

I as well went with the spw. Had Brooks make me the hammer head mold for both 20 ga and 12 ga using magma cherries. Best money I have spent in years. I cast with master caster. Single cavity only due to size. if you want steel 12 0r 20 hammer head slug mold they will make it. He has the tooling made for both now.

Just bought another 120 hulls just because and noticed that this batch of SPW are off white in color. Hope it don't affect the way they fly.
