    Reloading 12G Shells

    Hi Guys and Gals, can anyone tell me if I can reload any of the plastic case cartridges that I buy in the shops. I have been told by one supplier that I cannot reload the likes of the Falcon Cases used in Skeet, is that correct?

    i dont know about the newer falcon cases but the old ones used to have brass swelling issues when fired.
    unless you are loading special ammo which isnt normally available theres no real cost saving anymore with 12 gauge

    Welcome Tonky. Tell us about yourself.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
