[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1294616, member: 4191"] I crimped to 3 test depths. All improved precision. The heaviest crimp delivered the best improvement. All three crimp levels improved precision, compared to no crimp. Heaviest crimp the most. My .224 bullets were reduced ~0.002" in diameter. Crimp. Pull bullet. Measure bullet diameter at crimp, if you want to put a number to it. Otherwise, you'll feel a little resistance on the press handle, and also see the crimp on the case neck. Or follow Lee's Instructions! And go shoot'em... [/QUOTE]
