[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2338322, member: 15054"] I like HP38 for plinking loads in my 357 mag I load lead bullets that i cast myself and tumble lube with Lee liquid alox. LLA Now i have tried to pull a non crimped bullet that was built like the above..Could not budge it with an inertia puller. That lead me to try a non crimped batch..WOW groups really tightened up..and all my brass was trimmed to the same length. Now I needed to know if the revolver would make the bullet move on recoil. So i loaded some non crimped rounds and installed ..then proceeded to fire my hot loads with 170gr cast bullet and 2400 powder and magnum primers..1,376 fps average. I left 2 non crimped rounds in the cylinder and shot 10 shots and measured the OAL of the non crimped rounds. OAL did not change. I no longer crimp for my 357 mag. [/QUOTE]
