I used to load shells for my 2 7/8" chambered 10 ga. LCS with nothing but hand tools. I used fired hulls that I scrounged out of duck blinds, and some homemade tools, then roll crimped them. Worked perfectly, albeit a little slow. But, sometimes a man jes' needs to slow down some anyway .........
Glad to know your Lee press worked for you. Loading shells without a press always reminded me of the hunters of old who would reload what they shot that day, readying themselves for the next. Old guns and old methods sometimes go well together.
