Are these shells compression formed? They are smooth and have 8 point crimp.

Twice Barrel,
After I shoot them and reload them at least 10 times I will be glad to send you some.

That is nice to see...I feel your happiness all the way out here. This last year I managed to pick up 3 flats with 2 still in there shipping boxes to Kmart. It just goes to show there are still hidden treasures out there if we keep the faith and our eyes open.
Best,
Ron |

Send me a PM when your ready to mail them. I'll trim them to 2 9/16 th inches, roll crimp them and get another half dozen loadings out of them. |

Hunting these things is almost as much fun as hunting birds! |
