Crimping.
Hi guys i am a little confused on the whole crimping thing. I got a lee factory crimp die with my die set. I should add im loading 45 acp rounds. I bought hornaday 185 gn hp-xtp bullets without the crimping grove and some information i read online says you cant crimp a bullet that has no crimping grove. i was just wondering if this was true? I recently made 10 and they were not ejecting right. the fired shell was jamming in the chamber and OAL was right and i did put a slight crimp on each of the shells. I didnt know if someone else had this problem and without the crimping grove should i be crimping at all?
Thanks
