[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2310841, member: 313"] I come from the opposite side of the street from Bean. I've never crimped anything in 40yrs and I have some exceptionally accurate rifles/loads. The only exception for me was my 45-70 and that probably didn't need to be crimped either. However - Bean has got me test crimping cases for the "Hammer bullets" which have very little bearing surface in contact with case necks. So far, I have seen some improvements in shot-to-shot consistency and a slight increase in velocity by crimping "Hammer bullets" into the case necks. One thing I realize by reading the words of accomplished shooters is that there are many ways to get to the end of the road. I'd suggest that you work on the most basic methods and move forward there. Good luck [/QUOTE]
