Charlie, you are 100% correct BUT the guys I shoot with aren't gonna like the clouds of smoke and I'll hate the cleaning! My goal is the convenience of modern non-corrosive and the "style" of times gone by. I'd like to basically use the same supplies I stock anyway (Longshot, among others, and large pistol primers) and still enjoy the brass hulls. I'm weak for roll crimps as well, particularly with paper hulls. Again, fond memories of people, hunts, and years gone by. If you had told me 20 years ago I'd be shooting damascus barrels and paper hulls today I'd of thought you'd lost your mind!
