[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 663842, member: 34818"] I would recommend against crimping your reloads in your 300 RUM. There is really no need to. I have never crimped any of my loads and don't even crimp my rounds in my AR type rifles. The recoil is not going to be bad enough to knock the bullet into the case much if at all even with a RUM. In my opinion, You will get better results w/o crimping. If you have not ever reloaded, I would suggest buying the Barnes reloading manual that they have available. You should read all the information that it gives you on reloading in order to better educate yourself on the art of reloading. You can also find a lot of information on this website by doing a search. With the barnes bullet, I have found that it likes a good jump to the lands. You can start with the recommended seating depth that the barnes manual gives you and then play with the seating depth after you find an accurate load (you will understand more about what I am talking about when you read the reloading manual).
