Hornady Expander Taper Crimp Die removes the flare from the case mouth and crimps the case mouth around the bullet while maintaining a sharp edge for proper headspace. Improves feeding of reloaded cases in semiautomatic handguns.
How do you get more taper crimp:
- Loosen the seater adjustment screw (very top milled piece) about three times.
- Loosen the lock ring on the crimp adjustment screw (middle) and back it out about three turns.
- Tighten the crimp adjustment screw down until you have the correct crimp.
- After you have made the adjustment lock the lock ring and reset your bullet seater adjustment screw to the correct seating depth
