Sorry, but to me, it looks like he has the 6 point crimp installed instead of the 8 point which the STS uses

Crimp depth looks fine; ideally about a nickel thickness is the "ideal" thickness according to many. As long as you do not have a hole in the middle and you get the right precrimp installed, you should be good to go
