Crimp on 45 acp

[Ledslnger]

I use the Lee Factory Crimp die, as it actually resizes the loaded cartridge, and crimps as well.
No FTF with any of the ammo run through their die due to unforeseen buldges from bullet seating, etc

I use the Lee crimp dies as well. I just follow the instructions that arrive with the dies. The ammo usually drops right into the chamber gages. Works well for me.

Yes!

Same here, Lee FCD with just a touch of crimp. For me, this die is a must for reloading lead bullets, as Wes said it resizes the cartridge if it needs it.

Just remember ALL factory ammuntion is crimped (rolled, tappered and some bullets glued in.)
