[QUOTE="just_jon, post: 2269863, member: 112153"] I never crimped a bottleneck rifle case until I started loading hammers. I found my standard .002” NT was not always sufficient to keep the bullet from spinning in the case mouth about 20% of the time. Even those that did not spin were not shooting well for me. Thinking crimping may be preferable to additional NT, I did some research and found BB’s “Why I Crimp” post. It changed my thinking and I’m now the owner of 16 FCDs and crimp everything I shoot. Most shot better. None shot worse. [/QUOTE]
