So a guy at work gives me a huge box of "poppers", primed shells with a factory roll crimp already in place. (never seen THAT before) Trying to figure out, is there a way to un-crimp them so a slug can be loaded?  I've cut the crimp off of a few and tried some home made stuff, works ok but it's a hassle to cut off the crimp. There's several thousand so I'd hate to see them go to waste. And no, I've only been reloading shot shells for a few weeks, so I don't know alot about it. I've not seen anything on decrimping a roll crimp anywhere. Thanks

You could always trim them with a BPI Trim Doctor and use them for firing wads upside down powered by primer.

Not sure what caliber your talking about but I have a expander rod for my full length sizing die that I cut the decapping pin off. That way I can resize a piece of primed brass when needed.
