got me wondering: how much roll crimp can you use on coated (or plated) bullets before the curled-in edges of the case mouth start to affect the coating. Is it possible that the coating will be partially or totally stripped off as the bullet exits the case? I realize that this is a difficult question to test because it involves recovering bullets, but I'm wondering if anyone has ever experimented along these lines?
