Light Alloy Revolvers that Jump Crimp.

the crimp jump associated with certain magnum loads in light alloy guns?
There is a warning not to use ammo with lead bullets loaded at +P levels, in the S&W 337PD. When lead is compressed .005" or more, it will not spring back as much as the brass case. This leaves a some what loose crimp when compared to a jacketed bullet.
