Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Stan the only cause I can think of is the chamber diameter of your Lifters were cut for brass shells and would be oversized versus a chamber cut for paper shells. When firing the Winchester hulls in your guns the plastic expands to the diameter of the chamber. When you crimp the reload the larger diameter is very tight in the die and the crushing occurs before the cycle is complete. If it happens with a new hull then I would suspect the crimp die. Craig

Craig, I have 30 RMC 8 gauge brass shells. I have not heard of anyone loading smokeless in brass shells. What is the problem, if any, in loading smokeless in brass shells? Thanks.
