[QUOTE="BigDaddy0381, post: 158038, member: 8374"] First off, I'm new to reloading so i'm trying to figuer it all out with a proper starting platform.(no bad habits) the reason behind me wanting to know about crimping is.I did a load of 75GR of H4831sc and they shot awsome 5 in a quarter.okay on second load of same brass same load I seperated some cases.One came out of gun split around base.the other base came out and main part stayed in the gun.(not fun to get out)My thought was load is to hot.so i droped powder charge and my acuracey went way down.I was thinking cripmping might help.I have tryed all the powder charges from 70 and up.the 75gr was the best i have moved the bullet in and out and still nothing like i want. So i was just playing around with the crimping to see if it would help it did some what but still nothing like the first load i did. Do ya'll have any ideas for me to try? [/QUOTE]
