Remington Premier Accu-Tip. Hornady's copy is a close second.

If you are asking for a shipping company, it's only USPS, UPS, or FEDEX. Or, if FEDEX and UPS merge it will be called FEDUP. If you are having brass shells (cases) made the only place to go is Rocky Mountain Cartridge. Both they and the bullet mould maker and/or the projectile maker can ship their products to your gunsmith for his loading and regulation. Do you have a powder/bullet combination in mind or will your 'smith develop the load for you and then regulate for accuracy as he is constructing the rifle? And, is your 12-bore double a smooth bore or rifled? If rifled, what twist will you have in the bores? The twist will determine the bullet style and weight to be used.

Whatever you can get 300 or more rounds out of the same lot.
I like heavy for caliber full bore slugs personally.
They hit like a freight train.
