... "does not need a cannelure to crimp when using a Lee crimp die" ... I found adding a crimp to my straight sided and small shouldered cases improved accuracy due to improved, more consistent ballistics.

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.
