[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 2259692, member: 12282"] OK, just satisfy your curiosity, I load for a buddy who has a 340 Weatherby with the usual looong throat. I read some other posts here and elsewhere about the merits of crimping to improve accuracy in such circumstances. The gun refuses to shoot anything heavier than 200 grains which sort of defeats the purpose. Trying to load some 250 or 300 grain pills for longer range work. I will be crimping bullets that do NOT have a cannellure. Can that be done with a seating die, or should I invest in a Lee Collet factory Crimp die? Who has experience with one or the other or both?
