[QUOTE="Sgt Dog, post: 3788298, member: 15840"] Appreciate the responses and shared experience fellas. Hadn’t thought to trim at all till I found the R-P cases all longer than published max-length. First off I’ll load cast bullets. Interesting the crimp observations related to declining accuracy. Wonder if a tapered crimp would produce the same. I taper crimp all my 38-50, 38-55, 40-65 and 45-70 Black Powder loads in Marlin Ballards but roll-crimp for Smokeless levergun loads. I’m near-enough novice with handgun reloading to be all ears. So thanks! [/QUOTE]
