Have you considered a Lee Factory Crimp Die as the last step in the reloading process? I have my seater die set to only seat the bullet, and do all the crimping in the final stage with the factory crimp die. In addition to being very easy to adjust the crimp, it also does a full resize on the case to factory minimums (so they say) - any bumps you might have created in the reloading process get ironed out.

I've never had a chambering problem with any of my rounds that have gone through the factory crimp die (except when there's carbon buildup from 38s in 357 cylinders, which others have mentioned and for which there are other solutions.)
