For auto loader pisatols I take the crimp out with a taper crimp. I seat the bullet abd then come back to remove the bell.

For revolver ammo, I crimp lightly. The case mouth bends into the crimp grove but not a lot.

If brass needs a crimp to hod the ullet, then your brass is likely to be worn out.
