Re: Warning for shooter of lighweight revolver, esp. LCR

A couple of years ago I ordered 500 Remington Express 125 grain SJHPs in .357 magnum for use in my GP100, SP101s, and LCR. When they arrived, I examined them and found the factory crimp didn't look "complete" for lack of a better word on many of them.

I dumped all 500 of them into a shoebox, and ran the entire lot through a .357 crimping die, which I adjusted to give a secure crimp.

Later I did the same to 500 Speer Gold Dot 125 grain .357 magnum rounds I had ordered.

Didn't take all that long while watching TV, and gave/gives peace of mind when firing these hot loads in the lightweight LCR.
