    Crimping Nosler .223 bullets

    Crimping seems puzzling to me. Had alot of bad experience with crimping .40 SW, blewup 3 pistols. Know I don,'t crimp at all. I mite suggest you color or smoke a reload and start with just a kiss. If your denting or crushing the bullet - is too much. My $ .02 worth. Go slow , good luck.
