I got a good deal on some Nobel Sports in 12 and 20-gauge and shot a lot of them. And while they work well in my modern guns, I found that the base just ahead of the rim can expand when fired in SxS's that don't keep the outboard end of the ejector or extractor from moving out of place when fired. Same in Model 12's if there's a obvious step transition between the chamber and chamber ring. Either in turn can cause hard opening of the gun. Me, I just shoot and toss the NS hulls. Not worth trying to reload them when there are tons of once fired Rem Gun Clubs and some Win AA hulls for the picking at good sporting clays places. Again, that's for 12 and 20-gauge. For my 28's I buy Winchester AA's by the flat and reload the hulls, usually getting 6-7 reloads with good crimps. On the other hand Remington Premier hulls will only give me about 3 reloads. With all that said, I don't know what the life of reloaded NS 28 hulls might be and if it's worth the trouble trying to do that. Just my experience and opinion on all of this.
