I have completed version 1.0 of my loading bench and I am about to start reloading. I've been reading, and watching video so I'm pretty good to go. I have several years experience (back in the day) reloading shotgun shells, and I have a serious SAFETY attitude, but I'm new to pistols.
Here is the question. I have come by about 1000, 100 gr. double ended, 38 special wad cutter bullets. There is a groove, (not the proper name I'm sure) near the end on each end. Do I seat the bullets to the groove so the crimp will fold in it or do I seat the bullets flush with the end of the case?
I'll be using my brand new, Lee classic turret press.
Opinions?
Since I posted this, I searched the forum and found a thread on a similar issue. That thread sounded like my grandpaw when he taught me how to cut rafters. "quit scratchin' your head Boy! Jus make sure you're right, then go get the saw" I'd still like your opinions.
