According to the lee book that cross rib on the slug was made to have the wad mold into the bottom of the slug to carry the wad down barrel for consistent ballistics. You might be defeating the design with that nitro wad under the slug. Anyway the book is called modern reloading by Richard Lee page 144 second paragraph. And he doesn’t use a roll crimp. He calls that the old style. Just a FYI.

Very good load there. I find they shoot very well. I don't see that 45grns powder is too much at all. If it was faster burning then less charge would be called for. The roll crimp struggles when it hits the petals to form correctly and you have the same problem I had with the roll-crimper bottoming out on the slug before complete roll. You can force the roll crimp down harder if you don't mind a rub mark on the slug (which is only cosmetic).

Use the PT1205 wad (NO CARDS) for the 1oz slug. That's in Cheddite with a CH209 primer and 25 grains Bullseye. Gets you 1450 fps at 10,700 psi. Or... 28 gr Green Dot gets you 1425 fps at 9,500 psi. You CANNOT beat the way a PT1205 fits that 1oz slug; it's 0.200" shallower than the 12S3, and fits that slug like a glove. The 12S3 wads are now deprecated for the Lee drive key slugs.

@@censoreditali-american6487 It's been a while since I bought most of my equipment but I guess it depends on how much bullet casting you intend to do. I've spent over a thousand dollars easy and it also takes a time investment because it is kinda slow for some types of casting. If you are on a tight budget, you can look for used lead pots. Another very cheap method would be to get yourself one of the melting pots that are not powered or you can use an old, smaller, steel or cast iron pot that you don't ever intend to use for food again. Then all you need is a good propane burner hooked to a propane bottle. You need to do this in a well ventilated area and you need to wear nitrile gloves or something to protect yourself since you will pick up lead by handling lead bare handed. Don't ask me how I know this...I've been tested. You will need a dipper tool to dip the lead for mixing, removing the dross from the surface, and to pour lead into your mold by hand. And you need to get the molds you want. Lee molds are very affordable aluminum molds but they are also made from steel. You need to set the mold on top of your melt pot a while and it may take five or 10 castings that you need to re-melt to get the molds up to the proper temperature. Then you can turn out some quality bullets. Use a wooden dowel to knock the bullets out of the mold and use bullet lube to lube the joints on your mold for each molding session. I use Frankford arsenal mold release spray on the mold cavities but some people just use a match to "smoke" the mold cavities and that helps with releasing the bullets from the mold. One redneck kid just drilled holes of the proper size for his shotgun in a piece of 2x4 and poured molten lead in the cavities to make his slugs. But I've had great luck with the key slugs and using a very strong vegetable card beneath the slug to keep the wad from squirting up into the cavity of the key slug and messing up the trajectory. I use a Lee production pot and a lot of wheel weight lead for cowboy action bullets and I have lube sizers too. But to lube your bullets, all you need is some lube and a pan and an oven to do pan lubing. Once that is done, they are ready to load. But the lee key slugs don't need lube due to the plastic wad. Also, you can buy a mold for buckshot and make your own buckshot too. Put nine pellets in that wad and check your load and you have something you can defend yourself with. Normally I buy most of my 00 buck since it's pretty affordable. I use an old Pacific/Hornady shotgun loader with the proper bushings to drop powder and shot. It's a progressive press so I can load a lot of shotgun rounds pretty quickly and they look as good as a factory round when I'm done. But it helps to be mechanically minded in all of this. If you don't have much mechanical aptitude, it's probably best to have someone who is to do your reloading, or just resign yourself to buy all your ammo. AI also have some bullet molds that use copper gas checks for my magnum pistol and rifle loads. The loads being so hot that they would melt a standard lead bullet, so you can crimp on a copper gas check on the bottom of the bullet and push that thing up to magnum velocity with very good results. You don't need full copper jackets on most pistol bullets but watch for leading in the bore. If you are getting leading, you need a harder allow of lead for your bullets, a gas check, or you need to slow the load down a bit. Beyond that, I'd invest in a Lee Lead Remover kit which uses brass screening in a rubber chuck to remove all the lead from the bore of your pistol or rifle. Hope this all helps you.

@Hookset24903 жыл бұрын
@@sebastiantufigno6955 Wow Malta! Word sure gets around. As I understand ballistics....when you increase a given powder charge against a given projectile weight you will get a higher chamber pressure over the same load with a lower charge. Yet if you keep the same powder charge but increase the weight of the projectile, you also will increase the chamber pressure, because the heavier weight requires more pressure to start it down the barrel. Now there are other factors to consider also, such as primer choice, i.e. standard vs magnum, and if shotgun....the inner base of the hull can affect pressures. This is why reloading manuals give you a specific primer, powder, hull, shot cup or filler cards, and weight of shot for a given load. Changing any of these can lead to dangerous results. For all these reasons, if one is testing loads that haven't been published as safe....I recommend a test barrel that can safely handle high pressures and give the data needed. It only takes a millisecond to either change your life forever or end it.

John Lins fortunecookie45lc got me started on doing these. Check out my other videos with the green colored slugs for the load I use now. This particular load has accuracy issues caused by the wad.

The roll crimp tears up the hull too making it harder to reload. I like the star crimp for slugs

I use a 12 bore magnum shotgun; most important using a cylindered barrel (No Chokes at all).

I can't watch anymore of this. A LOT of talk about wads, not ONE peep about the die you are using to roll crimp! I think you should re-title this video: "My wad collection, and a little tiny bit of a demo on roll crimping a slug that was designed for a normal crimp".

Right around mark 1:00 SirSloop mentions the problem to avoid when roll crimping this or any "in a wad cup" slug. You need to assure that the side walls or fingers of the wad do not occupy the upper region of the hull where the roll crimp may pinch them. Some people trim the wad cup fingers, but there are wads that have short cups and cups with internal diameters large enough to accept the slugs. BPI's Lightening 7/8 is a good example.

I get much more consistent powder charges using WW Ball powder. It seems to flow and meter better than the flake powders.
