    This probably won’t help, but I made a tool to cut the top roll off, I tip out the shot and pop a slug in. I use the Svarog mould and they are a snug fit, but a spot of hot glue holds any loose ones in place

    With bulk boxes of steel carts this works out cheaper than reloading for me

    If you are talking about solid slug then more info required.
    I can give you my data but you wont have the powder I use or the slug!

    Do you re-crimp after loading the slug in, or is it not necessary?

    I got a rollover crimp tool for both calibres off the bay for not a lot. They work very well, but I think they were made in Russia.

    I feel obliged to point out all slugs are S1 & require FAC, although I'm sure you already know that.

    Shot gun cartridges

    A shot gun certificate is not required to possess or acquire shot gun cartridges containing five or more shot, none of which exceeds .36 inch in diameter. All ordinary shot cartridges are covered by this description. However, a shot gun certificate (or firearm certificate authorising possession of a section 1 shot gun) is normally required to purchase shot gun cartridges. All single bulleted ammunition, for example solid slug, spherical ball or projectiles for birdscaring equipment, is subject to the requirement for a firearm certificate.

    Yep, I’ve slugs slugs on my FAC for .410 and 12G, but only use them in S.2 shotguns. That confused them…

    How much are you paying for .410 solids?

    In the old days, simple accurate .410 slugs where made from cutting the top of .410 Winchester super X emptying just the shot and fitting a .38 hollow base wad cutter into the plastic wad which gave a nice snug fit, not tight or lose. Accuracy good tight groupings at 50 yards with open choke.
