Hand rolled bottom shots. Why are they so important? Bottom shots are those salutes contained in aerial shells. Properly made for canister shells, they form a sabot or integral part of the integrity of the shell.

Veteran shellmaker Don Rowe tells how he makes better shells by hand-rolling the case, and shows you how the standard color-&-report shell is better and safer with this technique.

Don is a shellmaker by trade, and he learned from skilled old country craftsmen. Learn from the pros! Recorded at the '94 PGI convention in New Castle. 60 minutes.
