Gents,

I have had no problems loading almost 1000 8 gauge shells using a converted MEC 600, Winchester and Remington hulls, and Remington SP-8 wads.

The results were witnessed at Hausmann's Hidden Hollow two summers ago by a military size squad of humble PGCA shooters.

Last summer I allowed a half dozen Parker and Fox guys to try the Fox Bo-Whoop long range shoot with my DH 8 and handloads.

The SP-8 wads and Win & Rem hulls work fine for me. The swaging and reloading equipment work great and are easier to obtain than is a decent 8 gauge.
