Resizing 12ga brass shotshells?

[LARscout]

Is there a simpler way to resize those fully brass shotshells short of buying a press? The Lee Load All press I do have is really only meant for paper/plastic hull shells and I'm unaware of any die sets that will fit my Lee Anniversary press, but I think the RCBS set will.
How crucial is sizing really? I dont see shotgun brass as expanding that wide to prevent chambering.
Thoughts?

These guys appear to be making a Lee Loader style kit for brass shells. Kind of cheap too at $30.

Excellent! Just what I needed, and for 40% of the price of a set of RCBS dies.

Good stuff.
I've tried the vintage primer tool on these shells without success. The anvil piece that pushes the primer in is far too narrow (even for a pistol primer), using it will deform the primer cup.
To widen the surface area you can insert a small piece of sheet metal between the anvil and the primer and this will prevent any damage to the primer. It wasn't long before mine broke.


To replace it, I bought this model. The depriming "needle" is a bit crude to say the least, but the priming slot works flawlessly.

The bottom tool is a Remington one.The chisel is for Berdan primers.Watch for the Bridgeport Gun Implement pliers type re-primers.There's a couple different types.This one is for Berdan primers.Good usable tools-
