Looking at vises for roll crimping. The two that I'm looking at are from Precision Reloading & Ballistic Products. In your experience, which is better and for what reasons?
Also, if you've found a better way than what is commercially available, let me know. I'm fairly handy and could probably throw something together my self with a little help.
Thanks. |

I know this is a bit out of the box, but a MEC Supersizer is the best shotshell vice going.
You can buy other collets if you need to change gauges, it holds shotshells better than any vice, the base makes a good clamping point, for whatever machine you need to mount it on and it does resize shotshells correctly. |

| My Bridgeport Gun Implement roll crimp tools come complete with shell holder so I have no use for a vice. If I did I would use DCs recommendation, those supersizers are damn hand for roll crimp guys. |

| MEC Supersizer; works great, easy change over and resizes to boot. |

| I made one using a toggle clamp from Grizzly or Harbor Freight, I forget which, and a couple wood scraps. Total investment of about 8 bucks. Works great. |
