Back in those "good ol' days, (late 60's, early 70's) reloading was so simple with these wonderful casings. 17.5 grs of Red Dot, the Winchester AA wad for 1 1/8 oz of #8 shot and a Winchester 209 primer, with assembly on a Model 700 Versamec (now obsolete) was just the ticket for Wednesday night and Saturday morning trap shooting. Reloading the newer AAHS casings has, for me taken some getting used to. Some loads, even following book specs will cause the casing's sidewalls to buckle. Using the AAHS casings can create even more frustration when setting up a load on a progressive press and progress appears to go sideways as the process begins.
