Re: Overshot card on top of full bore slug in brass case ?

Quote:

The outer diameter of brass and plastic cases should be the same, right !




Absolutely.

Quote:

So I should be able to resize paper or plastic using the same die.




Yes, that was my point above.

Quote:

The only other issue is decaping and repriming with the 209 primers, any ideas.




They are easily knocked out with a punch that will fit through the flash hole. A new primer can be seated using a dowel rod to push the case onto the primer set on a flat surface. No problem at all.

The roll crimper will need to be modified for RB and Hammer head type slugs.
Milled or bored out.




They already come that way.

Quote:

Maybe a paper hull with a paradox or stab crimp is better.
Can you get paper hulls still ?




Yes, Ballistic Products sells Federal paper hulls once fired. I bought a great big box full of them. Look on their website. I think you will like a round ball set with a roll crimp. It makes a great looking shell. That's the way they did it in "days of old".

Any load data for paper or plastic with a 1 1/4 oz hammerhead slug or 0.735" RB ?




Get the Lyman manual and use data for 1 1/4 oz shot loads. Look for lighter loads.
