Federal shotshell hulls any good....

[ragenmoan]

....for reloading? Anyone know if they are "tapered" or "straight" hulls?

If you're talking about the Walmart value pack type hull with the paper base wad, you could load them once, but most people don't bother. If they're Federal Gold Medal hulls, they're very good for reloading. If they're paper, they are worth a premium, though they don't last too long. They're all straight wall cases.

Federal paper a premium? I have a whole mess of them, who would I look for that wants em? I've reloaded the Walmart bulk pack hulls, they are straight walled and can be reloaded a couple of times, but they aren't really made to be reloaded like the Remington STS's, the Plastic Federal Gold Medals, or the Fiocchi purple target hulls (or the old style Winchester AA's, I won't touch the new fangled Winchesters..).

I know a few people that would like to get them depending on how many and how much?

Reloaded thousands of the burgundy Federal WW shells. I like them for the paper base wad. Usually good for one reload then let them fly as the crimps go to hell pretty fast after the first loading.
