[QUOTE="BradyT88, post: 2313474, member: 110304"] My best guess here is that the case is the whole length of the chamber so there is no room to have the bullet protruding from the end of the case mouth. Based on the shape of the crimp, I'm guessing the bullet is tapered rather than flat. They likely crimped it down like that to aid in loading and to remove both the potential sharp edge of the case mouth and the gap between the bullet and the case that could have something get caught in there that may or may not cause a pressure spike. Since it is Russian it is probably Berdan primed and most people won't reload for that. I'm just speculating though. [/QUOTE]
