A head that is correct in size for a new shell, 

 may be too small for a shell that has been fired. 

 An expanded shell can not be reduced in si/i- at 

 the muzzle by forcing it in a small head. The pap- 

 er will crinkle or fold on one side every time. In 

 such cases, we would advise an extra head that is 

 larger, for the shells that have been fired. When 

 ordering such special head, select several shells 

 that are of the largest size that will go in the cham- 

 ber of your gun freely, and send them to the manu- 

 facturers for special heads to fit. 



The Ideal Star Crimpers are the only ones on 

 the market that work positively on a straight line, 

 that will permit of interchangeable heads, follow 

 ers, and pins, and that will turn the various crimps 

 as shown in illustrations "C" and "D." Only one 

 Star frame is required for 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24 and 

 28 gauge. A different grip is required for the 24 

 and 28 gauge.
