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.

Quote:

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".

Quote:

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.
