Hi all, I have the above slugs and primed hulls, I can't find load data for this set up, anyone using these? I would like to use a fold crimp, don't have a roll die. I did download the manual from Ballistic Products, but it doesn't list this combo.
I know some hulls are interchangeable, which might help with load data.......

The only 3" hull my manual lists for fold crimp is Federal. If you trim to 2 3/4", I show 28.5 grains universal clays for a 2 3/4" Fiocchi. They are also close enough to Rio, I would feel comfortable using that data. Best choice is to just buy a roll crimper. They are much less fussy to use, no setup.

Con I add a 1/4” spacer on top and not have to cut the hull? I bought some of the 1/8th inch round discs just Incase, but I have never used them unless it called for them
