What is bullet set-back?
Remember how I explained to you why I use ballistic tip bullets in my high powers. Well if the crimp was to light it could push the bullet back into the case farther.

You do not have to worry about that with the .45 you are loading. There is plenty of press even without a crimp.

What powder and charge did you use? I am going to guess the same as what we used at my house.
