Here's a query for the reloading mavens out there....
My old MEC 600 gets used for cranking out a number of loads. I use both STS and AA hulls, though the AAs are fading fast.
These loads use shot of diverse sizes, different wad pressures, and the Clays Powder charge is different for the various recipes.
If I set the loader up for my skeet load in AA hulls, I have to reset it on a cut and try type basis for either trap load and the squirrel load.Otherwise, too much material meets in the middle and I get a nasty looking "Swirled" crimp.
I can do the resetting, but I'd like to get things done a little faster and easier.
So, here's the query.
Do swirled crimps have any negative effect on pattern, speed or performance? Or is the downside merely cosmetic?
Thanks...
