[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1819468, member: 69192"] I don't know how much reloading you have done, would like to suggest that you invest in the Lee Professional Crimping ($20) tool to load the 45-70s with. The crimping die makes setting up the crimp extremely easy and consistent. What I found was that the case length will vary somewhat as a result the taper crimp in the seating die, if set too deep, will buckle the cases. The Lee tool has three lugs that crimp in from the sides and squeeze the brass in to form the crimp. It's really a great tool. [/QUOTE]
