To Crimp or Not to Crimp...
#6
I have tried it both with and with out crimp,

I found that I had better accuracy with out the crimp. not by much but ever so little better. Not sure why I crimped some rounds. I never crimp bottle neck rifle rounds, and it does sometime create chambering issues. But only in one of my rifles did I have a problem, the same batch of rounds worked just fine in the others.

So it is a hit or miss type of thing, if they work fine with out then leave them alone. I you feel a little sparky then by all means give it a try, what can it hurt. It either works or it doesn't. As noted previously watch that the neck doesn't bulge below the crimp.
If you can not see the tyranny of having a gun ban enforced by men with guns... Then you fail to understand why the second amendment was written in the first place.
