[QUOTE="jwp475, post: 157361, member: 3776"] Does your bullets have a conalure on them? Probable not,therefore they are not intended to be crimped. You apparently have a set of Lee factory crimp dies.....a fishing lure in my opion.. Crimping is benificial in Big Bore revolvers inorder to eliminate the bullets from pulling out of the case and tying the gun up. Also big bore rifles,such as 458 Win Mag where recoil may force the bullet deeper in the case with the remaining bullets in the magazine. Also lever action tubular feed magazines benifit from crimping,but not a 300 Win mag.......[img]http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x91/jwp13051/thumb.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
