I don't think you're familiar with the Lee Loader.The taper crimp is only used to take out the flare, if you don't flare you don't need to crimp. I would not load lead or plated without flaring first but FMJ should be fine.
The 38/357 uses a roll crimp, whole different animal.
* 38/357 can use a taper crimp using plated or a very slight roll crimp.
It was My first loader some 40 years ago, in 357, I might have forgotten a few things.I don't think you're familiar with the Lee Loader.
He had asked about a lack of a crimp die and a flaring tool in his kit that is why I said what I did and why his 357 had it (needing the roll crimp)Well then, I hear you of course. I think the question was asked.. nothing to do with taper crimp dies and whatnots.
Oh I hear you. If Lee is putting them out without flare, de-flare capability, they just should stop.He had asked about a lack of a crimp die and a flaring tool in his kit that is why I said what I did and why his 357 had it (needing the roll crimp)
Not sure who you mean by "they" Just saying they are not needed, nice to have, yes but needed no.Oh I hear you. If Lee is putting them out without flare, de-flare capability, they just should stop.
