Crimp Pics

308Win, 137gr HH, RCBS taper crimp/seater die.
I really like the results. Not as aggressive as a roll crimp, but its enough to hold the bullet down for compressed loads. I have Lee factory crimp dies, but with compressed loads, the bullet pops up before I can change dies. This die holds the bullet down while crimping. I have done a few reloads using the crimp and so far, have not seen any indication that I am shortening the life of the case mouth. Grouping also seems to be good.
