    Roll crimping shotgun shells

    Have an old English 12ga here with 2.5 inch chambers its Damascus steel but its nitro proof
    Ive been reloading for it by cutting the crimp off a 2-3/4 shell loading the shell with black powder an over powder card cork wad and1oz shot and an overshot card glued in with 50/50 pva and water

    Or just shooting falcon cowboy which is a light nitro 2.5 load for about $13 a box

    But as i am a black powder shooter I mostly shoot black powder
    And I have been looking for a while for a roll crimping setup here in nz but hard pressed

    Any ideas on where to get the gear
    Cheers
