12 ga

, is there and simple conversion kits or kits or anything to load a shotshell on a single stage RCBS press?
Yes.
RCBS used to make a 12 ga. die kit for a single stage press like a Rockchucker. It will not fit into a 7/8ths inch only press. The press must have the removable bushing that allows for the larger die 1 1/4"X12 size.
Unfortunately, that die set may well be out of production. I just saw one up for bid on Ebay and it was VERY expensive.
There is a link to a current production set below but it will not properly crimp a shotshell; it is designed for brass hulls.
Also available on Ebay - and not terribly expensive - are the old Lee Loaders for 12 gauge hulls. They are slow but they do work.
