Max OAL for a .357 mag is 1.590". Using a 158grain SWC bullet. If I crimp the case at (A in jpg) OAL is 1.600"-1.610". If I crimp the case at (B in jpg) OAL is 1.590". Crimped at "A" the cylinder will still rotate without rubbing. I have several hundred rounds crimped at "A". I know several guys that reload who crimp at "A" without issue. Is there any risk or issues crimping at "A" or should I crimp at "B"?
