[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1285355, member: 4191"] I just ordered a Lee Factory Crimp Die for my 280 AI, since it's available from Lee for this cartridge, and because I don't jam the bullets with that rifle. $15.00 off FleaBay. They're inexpensive. My other cartridges are either wildcats (no Factory Crimp Die available), or I jam the bullets into the lands. Lee's catalog does state they'll manufacture Factory Crimp Dies for some non-standard cartridges for an additional fee. I haven't pursued that yet for my wildcat cartridges. I'm not convinced the crimping will be as beneficial for cartridges with bullets jammed firmly into the lands. But I'll test for any affects on accuracy/precision using the Factory Crimp Die with my 280 AI after the weather warms a bit this spring. Expect only good. At the least no harm. [/QUOTE]
