You should be able to pick up 20 gauge hulls at your local skeet range. I recommend the Remington premiers, and gun club hulls. The Winchester AAs work but I get fewer bad crimps with the Remys.

I too recommend the Remington STS or Gun Club hulls.  Often they're cheap and even plentiful.
 
 
 
 
Winchester literally wore out their ammo-making equipment for making AA-type hulls!  Which is why they went to the newer inferior multi-piece "AA-hull" they now offer.
 
Remington offers a better hulls nowadays, when for decades they struggled to keep up with tinnchester!
 
BTW, you can use data from a [shotshell] reloading manual rather from the poor loads Lee probably lists in those presses/kits.  Also keep your CF powder scales handy to verify powder amounts you use in whatever 20ga load that you choose.  ;)
