[QUOTE="SteelBanger, post: 2315209, member: 112192"] How do you determine how much crimp you're applying? There are literally no instructions in the die set for the TC die. I slowly adjusted it down to the point where it removed the flare, but I'm not sure how far to screw it down to apply the proper crimp. I've played with it some but have never gotten it to the point that I can see or feel any amount of crimp. The seating die is also a seating / crimp die so I could try using it to both seat and crimp in a single stroke, but again, I don't mind picking up the Lee die if it's better. [/QUOTE]
