Pardon my feeble attempt at a joke.

I just think you may be letting yourself in for some problems, not the least of which might be blowing up your gun.

You might try the shot capsules made for the .45 ACP and .45 Colt, reloaded in .455 brass. This might be an easier road to a .455 "shotgun." My apologies if someone else already suggested this.
His problem is he lives on Greece and he doesnt have access to a lot of things we take for granted.I was trying to help him do what he wanted safely.I cannot blame him for wanting to experiment,I love to.I believe he can work his way up with no danger.I am a redneck and where I got the joke about shorts,a friend of mine that drank about as much as I did in those days got his shorts on backwards and we were working out in the open with people around and he really had a time until noon.I really got a laugh out of him.I like jokes and take no offence.Just keep them coming. sam.

No problem rfc357. As you see I attempted a joke too. It's not so easy through the net though cause you can't see my "tonge in cheek expression"... So don't worry. I was a little worried, at first, it's true, but no hard feelings remain and also thanks for the advice.

The problem is that over here it is impossible to obtain .455 cartridges or brass. That's why I'm willing to try all this. That's all. Anyway I will procceed as said and we'll see. I don't want to mess my gun also. It's a pity. I know that. But I want the gun to stay alive, not just hanging dead above the fireplace.

And as about rednecks, when I was in Texas for a couple o' years (working there on a tanker vessel) my American friends called me "our f@#&%k Greek redneck" cause we used to hang out together and have a hell of a time. You see, our minds, Greeks and Americans are very much alike, either we like it or not. We have always been allies and fought together everywhere, we both like democracy (well we first used it as a political system and your Forefathers adopted it as the best they could give to their children) not to mention that we both shoot our wives if they cheet on us...!

So don't worry either a redneck or not. (Do something about those pants though...) He! He!...

We tok...
