my first 8 ga resizer was a pair of conduit pliars...did not make pretty shells but worked for me a few years...my second resizer was one made from a blue print that wayne gave me...a friend to it to a machine shop and gave it to me it works perfect...it makes a factory looking hull in one step on my press which is some kind of a piece of machineary my dad picked up some where... any way I roll crimp my 8 ga loads but gona try to get me a 6 crimp for the 8 ga...charlie

I’ve got a drill press and a BPI roll crimper as well as one of their shell vise things . And I obtained a few Remington hulls today so I’ll give roll crimping a try I think .

I have a BPI 8ga roll crumper as well as a 16 & a 20. All of them have one major flaw, in my estimation. The outside radius isn’t. It’s a sharp 90 degree edge, but the inside radius is nice.
I have a deluxe Bridgeport Products roll crimper in 12 ga and I would love to find that same device in other gauges. It has 4 roll bars as opposed to BPIs one.
