Are you talking about the six point crimp from reloaded network? I’ve been eyeballing that one as the one I have from BP doesn’t do so well with the Winchester super x paper hulls I have.
Do you just swap the fiber one to one for Toms loads?

The specific load I am talking about is the first one on page 80 in Toms book.
He lists it as 9600 psi but should be a good deal less without buffer and the plastic wad. The Fawcetts paper hulls should work a bit better than the Win paper ones as they have a plastic basewad. I have one of the Winchester paper hulls I cut the old crimp off and re-rolled it out of curiosity. I have had good luck with the BPI roller on the Remington hulls also.
It took me 3 weeks to get the paper hulls but considering they have to be shipped from England and at the time Fawcetts was closed for a week because their whole staff had covid. These days though a 3 week wait on reloading components isnt that bad

. The factory crimp on the Winchester paper was a bit wonky but then again they were made to be pulled apart not fired as it was a powder sampler case. I read Winchester did this to skirt paying hazmat on shipping powder. Winchester cant seem to stop using their industrial products to skirt the law lol.
