[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 1679129, member: 18849"] A lot of factory ammo & military ammo is crimped or has a lot of neck "grip" to begin with. The increased tension/grip of "cold welded" factory ammo may not be close to the difference that we notice in our handloaded stuff when it "cold welds". My dad shot 13 deer from the same box of 30-30 win silvertips over a period of 23 years. He died at 92 two months ago. I believe there is still 2 in that box. Not long range, never chrono-ed, they were crimped and I bet there was cold welding. It won't make a difference in short range stuff. But most LRH ammo required consistency in all aspects. IMHO, Randy [/QUOTE]
