I've started loading 124 grain fmj-rn bullets over 3.4 gr of Hod. Tite Group on a Lee Turret press and I'm putting a light crimp on the cases. (not a roll crimp). I've just started shooting an auto loader and I'm concerned that the bullets might get pushed back into the cases and cause a pressure spike. I have always shot revolvers and I know I need a decent crimp to keep the recoil from re-seating the bullet for me. What is your normal crimp (if any) for this sort of application? Am I just being a fussbudget? I have a history with shotgun reloading but not pistol and rifle ammo.
