Don't overlook the Federal/Estate hulls. As long as you don't let the fiber base wad get wet they are good for 7 - 8 loadings. I like to trim them to 2 9/16th inches after the crimps start getting weak and roll crimp them for my short chamber Parkers and Foxes. Great for those heaver loads as they have more internal capacity than the Remington and slightly more than the Cheddite. They work best with Gualandi 1618 for 1 1/8th ounce loads, 1621 for 1 ounce and 1621 with a bit of puffed rice or Styrofoam filler for 7/8th ounce light loads.
