bill i tried peeling some of those remington hulls today worked like a charm...but the 8 ga winchester hull is one piece brass they will not peel..the winchester hull i tried was one of them clear see thru jobs... but i have found a new and cheap way to press those hulls down to fit our guns.. i was looking in my pliers box for the needle nose pliers and saw a old set of car battery totin pliers ther about 12 inches in lenth...i tried using them but did not notice a couple little studs made inside of the head of pliers...used my small air operated cut ting tool and took care of those little dimples...you have to rotate the hull by hand as you squeeze the pliers...it takes about 30 secounds to squeze the brass and i did not get in a hurry timed myself with a watch... theresults are good and the brass still looks ok..it does not look as factory astom arbrust brass but it goes in the gun fine..and i fierd the hull up to 10 times with no problems... dont remember what i gave for these pliers butno more than 10.00 dollars...very little effort is required onsqueezing...remember these are car battery toting pliers...if i get a chance ill try to get some pictures of the pliers...ive solved the problem for myself on these old 8 ga hulls..believe some of you other fellas can make them work for you...but if i could get myself a one piece dye for ten bucks or less id probly get one but for now the pliers are tops...i only had the clear winchester hull to try this on was out of the remys... charlie
