Another reason I crimp is if a load goes thru, like with a Weatherby Magnum, & someone who -looks like me- has passed it
over in the POWDER process. Just the Federal Magnum primer goes off, wouldn't that pop the bullet out of the case into the tapered rifling
& stick in in the barrel?
Well back in the stone age when I started loading again I did a load just like that, EXCEPT I HAD CRIMPED IT & the bullet
didn't move. So what could have happened, didn't. However it did happen to the fellow I worked with & the rifle never grouped well
from then on, don't remember the caliber.
