[QUOTE="varmintH8R, post: 869124, member: 39801"] I don't crimp any rounds for my bolt guns. Here is something that may further put your mind at ease. Seat a bullet and measure the exact OAL. Hold the brass and put the tip of the bullet on a 2x4. Push with a little force and re-measure. Push a little harder and re-measure. See how hard you have to lean on it to get it to move. I think you'll be surprised just how much force is needed to get it moving. [/QUOTE]
