[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3751525, member: 15054"] Now on that carbide crimp die if you are shooting cast bullets and sizing them a certain size many times that carbide ring will squeeze the round to the point that all your effort of sizing to .001 or so over groove will be wasted. Found that out with my 45acp. I had mad a lot of loads without running the case through the carbide crimp die. Like 2000 of them and they were very accurate. 130 yard gallon milk jug accurate. I then began loading for other 45's for buddies and my 2000 rounds would not chamber in a couple of them so I ran them through the carbide crimp die and made them fit. My accuracy went to car door at 130 yards. Fail. [/QUOTE]
