I wish they made it in 8 gauge also, now in the UK there is a 2 pin one sold for the 8 ga but they cant export reloading supplies/equipment.

FYI, Milton, Nick Ross (Supplier to The Reloaders Network) has now made an 8ga., 6 pin roll tool. He sent me his first one for testing, and I'm pleased to say it is every bit as good a performer as all his others. The heavier wall Remington hulls roll best, but the thinner Winchester hulls, while not as smooth on the inner rolled edge, are more than satisfactory. The prototype I have is not nitrided, but I would suspect the production tool will be.

I forgot to mention, but as you can see, the Nick Ross 8ga. Roll Crimp tool has SIX pins. The loaded shell shown is a 300gr Fg Blank for my Strong Cannon

That has to be the best roll crimp I have seen on a 8 gauge hull,If it goes into production I would definitely buy one.
