Walt, have hear many times to taper crimp auto rounds, I tried this when loading my .45 with 250gr lead bullets, these were loaded fairly warm but can't remember amount of powder (at work now) what would happen is the bullets would work their way out of the case, went to a roll crimp and this stopped, have used a very slight roll crimp on all the .45's that I load now and seems to work just fine, shooting out of a 1911 and a H&K USP.
and load every thing from soft target loads 4.1grs 231 to pretty hot bowling pin loads.
been doing this for over twenty years with the 1911, am I lucky or???? thanks.
