Will it work in a K hornet or will the straightened case walls interfere?

Thanks

It will work fine. It seems unlikely, but it will also work with the 218 Bee and 221 Fireball, because they all have the same case length. Don't ask me how, but that's what I'm told.

The bottom of the crimp die, hits the shell holder the crimp is set at that time. So some case the same lenght and Cal. will over lap. The K Hornt will work fine. as RockyRaab stated. You can send them three case and three bullits, tell them what over all lenght you want them and for around $30 get a custom crimper Built.

Thanks Rocky. I was afraid that the blown out case would be bumping the die.

Good info.
I just loaded up some 218 BEE rounds yesterday, and want to crimp them with the Lee Hornet crimp die now that I know it will work.
