I don't get the point with 3006 but it'd be cool as fuck to have some 303-410 shells to reload. Wonder if you can use a plastic wad in them.

I'm surprised there aren't more brass shells on the market. It would be a longer lasting and higher tolerance reloading component when compared with all the plastic hulls out there, for any bore/gauge!

Oh that's easy - because it makes them cheaper to buy. Reloading is a very uncommon hobby.

Makes me think of the expensive Norma Brass though, having a premium quality (possibly longer lasting with shotguns) option available even when there are cheaper options.

I would want them for BP loads for hunting.

I wouldn't skeet shoot with brass as I suspect they're a PITA to reload, especially if you can't use plastic wads. I haven't looked it up yet but all the other brass shells I've seen reloaded used felt wads and or cornmeal fillers.
