Hello DarylS
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, the Lee Factory Crimp Dies works great even on bullets without a cannelure groove. In my case when shooting any of my Dangerous Game Big Bore rifles, I'm satisfied with 1-1/2" to 2" groups at 50 yds. Also, with my "swage-modified" .440 bullets I can use the conventional Seating die (crimp) to form a slight crimp over the bullets newly formed shoulder.
