Just a thought on the 1500 Winchester x22lrpp I bought this morning.
I have noticed (checked 1x50 box) that the noses can be rotated on nearly every round... Is this a Crimp problem or normal?
Will they be OK?
I normally use CCI 40grain round nose but they were out of stock with no lead time on another CCI shipment, the Winchesters were cheap enough, buy 2 bricks get one free, so I got some.
The noses can't be pulled out but the rotational thing got me a bit worried, I assumed (rightly or wrongly) that Winchester would have good QC on their crimps so this must be normal and probably OK. These are USA Winchesters not the Australian made ones.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance

Cheers
