Good morning all,
I know this subject has come up many times, and I have read several of the threads on it. I am using a Lyman primer pocket reamer (large rifle) to remove the crimp, and I put it on my cordless drill because doing it by hand is incredibly slow and tiring as well as not too effective. But here is my question...how can I tell when the crimp is removed?
Some of the past threads suggest that the visible crimp ring should be gone after reaming, and others say it will still be there. When I ream them, the visible crimp ring is still there even though I have reamed the cases using electric power. All of the brass is from '07, '08, and '09, so it isn't really old, and it certainly isn't match grade or LR.
Thanks for any advice,
Jasper
