Your round looks good, but I would recommend seating the bullet a little deeper and a stronger crimp. In my .460 I had some bullet creep with the crimp looking like what you have there.

Of course, your experience may be different. My .460 has stout recoil with the 3.5" barrel.
Thanks for the suggestions! I have the crimp die already 1/2 turn in from recommended but I agree that it is still not very tight-feeling. I have to put a hella crimp on my .45-70 lever gun as the rounds go in end-to-end and it is WAY harder to push down on the lever.
