For people who reload 2 1/2", what do you use to cut down your 2 3/4" hulls to 2 1/2" hulls? And, does anybody cut down the Remington game load hull to 2 1/2"?
Thanks!

I cut Federals and papers quite a bit. I have a cutter I made here and it is adjustable to cut whatever length you want. I cut the Remington greenies but don't think to highly of the black hulls so I never mess with them.  |

| A simple jig can be made of wood to the length desired---Glue a few strips together then drill out for the plastic/paper tube only to fit thru-the wood should rest on the rim of the shell |
