Greetings All

It has been awhile since there was a post to this thread but since my question pertains specifically to the Sherman Bell recipes I thought I would revive it rather than start a new one.
I recently acquired both a Winchester 1901 shotgun. As this is a 1906 manufacture I want to keep the pressures low. Therefore I am looking to reload 2-7/8" shotshells. In looking at the data sheets I have two questions:

1. IF the recipe calls for a 6 point fold crimp and I roll crimp will that impact the pressure and if so up or down?

2. Many of the recipes call for a Federal 209A or CCI 150 or Rem 57. All I have access to in my area is Win 209. As I understand it the Fed and CCI are hotter primers so would I be correct in assuming that the Win 209 would work but it would result in lower pressure and velosity?

thank you for your help.

Ray
