The 8 gauge MEC loaders I have seen advertised have been priced at a ridiculous level. There is nothing in an 8 gauge shell that can't be reloaded without a press except for the crimp. In my opinion, the crimp is not neccesary for a good load. I don't know anything about the resizing of the industrial shells. I have alway peeled mine. However, I don't know if you can peel Remington plastic hulls.

Charlie, what little I knew about 8 ga., I've repressed, because I've lost 25 pounds since early December, and wasn't particularly heavy even back then. I'm going back to hospital next week to have a foot of large intestine removed, so kicking the s**t out of myself isn't high on my bucket list at the moment.
