thoughts on minishells

[wild_weasel]

I was at Turner's this weekend and saw a Mossberg Maverick 88 w/ folding ATI stock for MSRP of $280 and thought, "how cool is that"! I'll pick it up next week after I cool off. The first accessory I ordered was an OPSOL adaptor along with a variety of Mini/Shorty shells to try out. I figure I can get 7 or 8 mini shells in a 'standard' 5 round tube.

I'm exploring ways to reload or make minishells. Would you be willing to share the procedures you use and possibly recipes as well?

He actually did share his procedures.
You cut down typical one-piece 2-3/4" hulls and then use an over-shot card and roll crimp.
He made different length copper tubing guides for setting the hull length to get the proper stack height and roll crimp.
