[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1886285, member: 48043"] Heck, the only rifle rounds I crimp at all are for my 375h&h and my 405wcf. I don't even crimp my 75gr match ammo for my 5.56 ar.. I've shot most of the mag and checked and have zero walk so it doesn't matter much on that combo. I do crimp revolver ammo, but that's pretty much a no-brainer as you'll probably get bullet creep otherwise with the heavy recoil. I've worked with crimps on my 338win and 35 whelen and it's made little to no difference. I guess crimping can't really hurt as long as you have decent accuracy but IMO it's another chance for accumulation of inconsistency if you don't trim every time a case is shot. [/QUOTE]
