Easily loads into your .410 gun?
I don't know. Don't have any overshot cards or any powder like 'Lil Gun or H110. That was my first attempt at a roll crimp.

If it loads, then awesome.
I'm using a pump. Once fired shells go in the chamber but they don't come out. New primed Fiocchi hulls are being delivered today.

A collett resizer would likely remedy your once fired hull extraction issue. Unless, the load is a bit hot and causing over pressure indications.

I voted “dog poop” because it’ll be the only time I ever get to vote “dog poop”

Looks like it’ll work, put some guts in a hull and try it

It was a once fired roll crimped hull with no powder/primer/powder/wad that didn't extract. I got some H110 today and my unfired primed hulls arrived too. Loaded one up, fired it, and it extracted with no problem.

I voted dog poop only because it's not every day I get to vote dog poop.

Heck looks good to me but I know nothing about roll crimps. I do all my loads with a 6 point fold, trying to avoid roll crimps at all cost.

If once fired hulls aren’t resized, they can be problematic.
