What is this groups take on the following statement:
Speer recommends against using the Factory Crimp Die with their bullets due to the fact that a heavy crimp can deform the jacket and supposedly affect accuracy. Lee instructions echo that recommendation. Keep in mind, however, that Speer is owned by Blount, the parent company of RCBS. This recommendation may have a "sour grapes" motivation.
Has anyone loaded Speer bullets with the Lee Factory Crimp Die?...successfully?
