[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2773957, member: 101791"] I just order out Lee crimping dies across the board in .220 swift, 22/250, 6mm, 25/06, 6.5, 7mm, 308 NM, 338WM. I couldn't get a clear answer from Lee on the crimping die. "Here we go again". I am thinking and partly understand that the die holds the bullet inline while crimping the neck only. Not touching the shoulder or another area. Which in part that's what I was told. What wasn't clear was there possible anyway the a part of the die would touch the case somewhere else. Being the die isn't built for my case configuration. The reason for this question is. Have a 6mm/280AI rifle built, and having 25/280AI being built. I am hoping that the 6mm, and the .257 crimping die will work. No diagrams or configuration drawing or detail, to show the inside of the die, and how it's built. If not I got a friend that can adapted it or build me one if needed. Can anybody supply or send me a detail on inside of crimping die, so I can better understand what I am up against. [/QUOTE]
