[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3725628, member: 15054"] I do not crimp my rifle or pistol rounds. I tried it but accuracy suffered. But if you have uneven bullet seating pressures you may find accuracy in crimping. When you seat the bullet into the prepped case go slow and notice how much force the press arm needs to seat the bullet. If you feel one seating very easy and another one taking quite a bit of force to seat then your accuracy will suffer . Crimping may help. I found more brass prep helped and making every case exactly the same. Have fun in this deep pit of hand loading. [/QUOTE]
