george have you measured your chamber lenths of your w c ive never seen or heard of a 8 ga with chambers under 3 1/4 inches and some of these old 8 s chambers are up to 4 1/4 inch...the winchester or remington hulls should be fine for your gun...i dont think they will be shorter than 3 1/4 inch if they are it would surprize me...you can also shoot modern smokless powder instead of the old black powder stuff if you want to by following reloading instructions...tell us something about your gun ...my old lifter parker is 3 1/4 inch chambers and my old f a loomis gun has 3 1/2 inch chambers wish they were 4 inch.... charlie

What is the latest tech for resizing industrial shells to fit in sporting gun chambers? Are the latest industrial shells compatible with 209 size primers?

yes bill the 8 gauge industrial shell that is made now accepts the 209 primer....ALLEN MYERS MAKES A 1 PIECE resizer to re shape the hull in 1 swift motion using a press... dont know the price...you can resize yourself also by using the pipe squezers i used it is told how here in one of the old threads about 4 6 months back..it does not make a pretty factory look like mr allen myers...tom arbrust uses mr myers dyes for this...the brass hull looks factory and it slips the brass into a old 8 like it was made for it....once you resize a industrial hull all you need is a set of the old lee hand loader tools in 10 ga they work fine...buy a roll crimp from ballastic products in 8 ga and your in business...in fact some one was making a reloading kit outof the mec 10 ga magnum reloader..i want one of the reloading of the old 8 ga is prettthese but have not found one...mr myers also made these but has quit making them...reloading and shooting the old 8 ga is as easy now to reload as the 10 ga... charlie

i said that it was ALLEN MYERSwho made the one step 8 ga resizing dies but i have to correct myself it was JOHN MILLAR WHO MADE THEM... A 1 1/2ounce load is in TOM ARMBRUST RELOADING BOOK... at 6800 lb s of pressure... you could shoot these lite loads all day... charlie

Charlie, how do we contact John Millar? I am using my RMC brass shells now, so don't really need to resize the industrial shells, but it would be nice to have one of those dies. For our information, the 8 gauge MEC conversion loader was priced like it was made of gold and would not have been of interest to anyone I know. My factory loaded Gamebore and Eley Bismuth loads are loaded in Remington and Winchester industrial hulls and are very attractively resized. I guess there is a possibility that the British companies talked Remington and Winchester into selling them commercial sized hulls without the ring.
