I too would ask the trash talk would go away. Someone asks a question, Bricktop answers with good information and in detail and does not deserve this kind of garbage. Take it elsewhere.


You might want to look at Bricktops first answer to me on this very thread. miles

You're quite the salty dog for someone who talks a lot of trash in your posts, aren't you? smirk

Taper crimp dies are for autoloaders, roll crimp dies are for revolvers (and other guns where bullets jumping forward or being pushed backwards is inadvisable).

The Lee handgun factory crimp die offers either a taper crimp for autoloaders or a roll crimp for revolvers. The item that particularly sets them apart from other crimp dies is the addition of a carbide sizing ring.

I stand by my comment as well as my information provided. If you'd rather get into a whole rock-throwing debate, we can do that, too.

The factory crimp die is, a, BT said, a step up from the seating/crimp standard die as it produces more consistent ammo. And yes, it comes as a taper or roll crimp depending on the application.

Reading comprehension is becoming a lost art, sheesh.

The only trash I have talked to you was when you called Dr. Ken a liar, and I want nothing to do with you. Please stay out of my posts in the future. miles

And in that thread, you came off just as well-informed and cerebral as in this one. And quite the suckass, too, I might add. You'd think anyone with the balls to talk a bunch of trash would be able to back that up. Guess not with you, huh? And with that in mind, I don't think I will stay out of "your" posts, dickhead. Learn to live with it.

Though, as stated previously, we can get into a whole rock-throwing debate. Just let me know. smirk

Jackass? Biggest one you know, I hope. Though I do know a thing or two about handloading handgun ammunition. And that puts me a step or two ahead of your dumb ass, huh?

Again, you'd certainly think anyone as full of piss and vinegar as you would be able to back that up. Guess not.
