It works O.K. but gets on the outside of the case and makes extraction of the fired shell hard. Is there a better way?

Where do I get a roll crimper?
What you are using works great, just wipe off the silicone before it dries and you will be fine.
Bilozir sells over shot wads, yes.
I've also used Barge cement, tremclad primer, and fletching cement.
Some people put a slight crimp on their brass cases but it shortens the case life, I never felt the need to.
