You are correct Harry.Take a close look inside your Federal hulls. I bought a bunch off ebay that had a mixture of paper and plastic basewads... and all looked like the guy fished them out of a swamp after they sat there for some time. Some of the primers are corroded in and warp the brass base out to the point of destroying the hull when I try to punch them out. I'll not get many useable hulls out of that batch and will have to be careful to load them in batches based on the base wad... I discovered the short RST hulls also and will have to load them in a batch to get the load and crimp right. They should make a very nice 1oz or 1-1/8oz load hull
