[QUOTE="Tiny Tim, post: 2942665, member: 87887"] Agree with others, crimping in the groove is more beneficial. Like crimping on the cannelure that many older style bullets had, or like a roll crimp on a revolver cartridge. They were placed there to help hold the bullet during heavy recoil. It provided a better grip in the groove, we just do it for a different reason on the Hammer bullets. [/QUOTE]
