[QUOTE="Firpo, post: 4320922, member: 45550"] Another thing I think you’ll want to consider is these old shotguns with short chambers were also designed for ammunition with a roll crimp and not a star crimp like modern ammo. When that crimp opens up you’re adding what, another 1/2” to the shell’s length?? I have an old German combo gun from 1891 and for the 16 gauge barrel I bought brass shells and made my own hand tools for reloading Black Powder. Works great although not exactly ideal for high volume production. 😉 [/QUOTE]
