For all you 8 gauge fans, I just posted a couple of vintage paper Eley factory loaded shells for sale in the appropriate section.

DLH Wouldn't have any "paper" cases, industrial or otherwise, would you?

Nah, I've never had any paper cases, just plastic stuff that I use in my gun. Sorry

Someone in your area had and sold a bunch of WW red paper industrial cases a year or so back and I was hoping to get a few, oh well.

The clear Winchesters are by far the best cases to use.
I never heard about the paper industrials selling around here.
The problem with loading old paper cases, at least in my experience, is that the primers are different sizes than any of the modern stuff.

Are those cases sold by precisionreloading.com industrial size cases or are they resized for use in normal shotguns?

Westley Richards,Birmingham, offers new 8 bore guns built to order.The minimum cost is 43,500 GBP or $70,000,roughly. You can see one in the process of being made.  Took it when I visited their showroom a couple of months ago. Best- Vikram

Hi,
I have a muzzleloader Westley Richards 8 bore damascus BBL ca. 1865, it was regularly used by the last owner on geese and ducks in Kent UK.
I also have an Elderkin Double BBL 8 bore that was originally a spanish Zabala 10G and polished out to 8 bore. Shoots quite softly with 3 inch shells and blue dot (remington industrials).
