I picked up a couple of boxes of Berry’s plated bullets to try out.

I loaded my first batch yesterday, and without a cannalure I was having a time deciding what a good enough crimp was.

Too much, they warn, it cuts the plating, leading to separation.

To little, the bullets could back out of the case inside a chamber while shooting the rounds in the other chambers.

Does a taper crimp help? I’d need a different crimping die but that is no problem. I compressed two cases yesterday while deciding what was “too much” of a crimp. Backed it out 1/2 turn or so and did the rest of them.
