[QUOTE="basinman, post: 2315304, member: 75978"] For my taper crimp, I usually get it down until the bell is removed and go another turn down. You can use your caliper to monitor the crimp. I wouldn't use the bullet seating die for the crimp as it is roll type crimp. You want the taper crimp to slightly squeeze in on the bullet but also leave some of the lip sticking out for headspacing. [/QUOTE]
