Taper Crimp die for pistol

#1 · April 9, 2012, 2:50 pm

Want to try out plated bullets from Berrys or Ranier. Is there a taper crimp die for 38/357 ? Checking my Lyman book for recipe for 125gr HP. Mostly target shooting 38, occasionly 357. Any suggestions ??

I believe all recent Lee dies are made to taper crimp -- at least in .45 and 9. The
change-over date is mentioned on the Lee site, I believe, tho it escapes me at the
moment.

shouldn't you roll crimp the 38/357?
