[QUOTE="Laguna Freak, post: 1996070, member: 87188"] Tune-able to what extent? Please enlighten me. I roll crimp rifle loads after seating. So that is 1 more step because I’m not good enough to get all my cases exactly the same length and bullets aren’t either. I measure roll crimp by degrees of rotation of the die. Generally 11 to 22 degrees crimp depending on bullet : case. Eg; 30-06 with 150 Accubond gets 11 degrees because more will buckle the case neck. 300 WSM with 180 Scirocco II can take 22 degrees without buckling the case neck. [/QUOTE]
