Shotshell reloading

[dovehunter]

I will agree with the others regarding MEC shotshell loaders. I would never own anything else. Whatever you get, avoid the LEE LOADALL shotshell loader like a case of the plague. It is absolutely the biggest piece of junk ever made. I know because I had one.

I will also highly endorse Remington STS shotshell hulls. They are the easiest to reload, give the best the crimps, and last longer than anything else I have ever used.

As far as powder goes, I use Alliant's UNIQUE for all my shotshell loading - 12, 16, & 20 ga. There may be better powders for specific applications but, for all around use, it can't be beat. It also works well for most handgun loads and I use it for reduced loads in my .22 HORNET rifle.
