[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 533815, member: 10178"] I have done some testing and have found that with "normal" bolt rifle chambers where you can get the bullets closer to the lands crimping is not necessary for best accuracy. But I have discovered in most of the old military rifles that have looooooooog throats and generous chambers the use of a Lee Factory Crimp Die has improved accuracy greatly for me. It has also improved accuracy in the loads that I use in my M1 Garand and my AR15 with certain loads. [/QUOTE]
