I started reloading pistol a little over a year ago. Thanks to all of you it has been a fantastic hobby and allows me to shoot more often.
I de-cap and size in a separate step but I do every thing else on my LnL AP. Based on input from the forum my last step is to crimp using the Lee Factory Crimp Die.
I do like crimping as a separate step but do I need to use the Lee Factory or will any single purpose crimp die work. The Lee is a pain to set on the progressive due to its short length.
If I already sized on the first step why do I need to resize using the Lee in the crimp step?
As always thanks for your input!
