Paul,

Like Mark, I too shoot 12 gauge plastic shells and wads through my 10 gauge guns with great success. When I shoot BP in the 12 and 20 gauges I use extruded brass and a fiber wad one gauge larger. I did have some 10 gauge Ballard Brass (now produced by Rocky Mountain) and shot 10 gauge .790 wads through .802 bores. I just thought that if I had extruded 10 gauge brass that used 9 gauge .815 wads I would have gotten a better seal. The Rocky Mountain brass may work wonderfully for you, but you can purchase 25 Magtech 12 gauge shells for $22.49 where 25 Rocky Mountain 2 7/8" 12 guage brass hulls will cost $170.00.
