[QUOTE="cape cove, post: 2673447, member: 95503"] I tried crimping in my 7/08 with the Lee FC. I took my best 7/08 load and crimped it and accuracy went south. I don't believe the problem was the crimping but the fact that I didn't work the load up using crimping at every powder and seating depth level. No doubt crimping will affect the start pressure and velocity changing the OBT of the load. I assume that was the reason. I may in the future work up another load using crimping at all nodes to see if it improves the accuracy. JME [/QUOTE]
