For all practical purposes, you can ignore the case cannelure. The case cannelure is created with a special tool such as Corbin's
HCT-1. If the bullets in your handloads are "setting back" in spite of a healthy crimp on the case mouth, a cannelure crimp might solve the problem.
If your loads actually needed a cannelure crimp, you'd be the first guy I know. I think most folks that use them do so for authenticity and because case cannelures are cool looking <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />.
The key to handgun crimps is using the right type. Die sets sometimes come only with a "roll crimp" die, which is not suitable for cartridges that headspace on the case mouth (semi-auto's). Cannelured bullets shouldn't be used in this case anyway. The roll crimp is generally used on revolver cartridges that headspace on the rim.
A "taper crimp" is used on cartridges that headspace on the case mouth.
