I'm going to have to take up reloading for the 10, and cut down my old 3 1/2 inch Federals to 2 7/8. Good thing I have about 4 boxes, all in steel, and only 1 box used. Finding Bismuth 2's will be a challenge.

Thanks for the info. If they know about the primer piercing problem and can only get Cheddites, it would only make sense to deprime the hulls and reprime them with another primer. It may hurt someone's hammerless gun or even the shooter.
