I have read that the lee seating die for Lee Pro 1000 are both Taper/Roll in the same die.
I want to load .40 s&w with either 180gr lead or CMJ for a CZ75B with Hodgdon Universal Clays.
I heard most KB with Clays/Universal Clays are due to setback of the bullet which can drive the pressure from 30 000 to 70 000psi only with .020"
I'll load WAY under max, as I want a low pressure round (135-150pf), how do I tell I have enought crimp?
I have done a dummy, 1.130" AOL (Factory is 1.133, Hodgdon data for MAX is 1.125") and chamber right, and won't setback when smacked on my desk, bullet first.
If I remember, I have put the Die until it touch the brass case than added 1/2-3/4 turn for the crimp.
Any tips?
