[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 1768746, member: 109862"] Played around with crimping in the first year or two of doing this. Didn’t find it hurt anything but also found it didn’t help and is unnecessary. My approach then is to not do it initially. If for some reason a bullet will not shoot well crimping is near the back of the list of things to try but it is on the list. If the Bullet has no cannelure or grooves then it doesn’t get crimped for any reason whatsoever. Plain Jane flat base interlocks seem to like crimping in my 270. [/QUOTE]
