In my experience Cheddite hulls are nowhere near as good for reloading as hulls from Winchester, Remington and Federal. I got some experience reloading 16 ga hulls this fall. They are prone to buckling just ahead of the brass no matter how much you adjust a MEC loader and shot column. I also noticed that the crimp folds lack memory. in fact the more I loaded and shot them the smoother the mouth of the hull became. I read on here awhile back somebody(s) were having headspace problems with repeated reloading of Cheddite 10ga hulls. I believe it is simply a case of making them as economical as possible i.e. shoot one and done.
