It's my intention to do the same with a new 9000 press for 20ga, but it wouldn't be any different in a 16ga press, except boring it to 7/8". I don't think I could do it in a 12ga press, but I shoot 12 so infrequently, it doesn't trouble me to do them on a single stage press.

Mr. Spencer, could you post a picture please? Thanks
