Re-crimp

[rubbman]

So I reloaded some 38 special the other day only to discover that I had bought a taper crimp set(?!?!?!?) when I need a roll crimp for my revolver! so the question is can I re crimp or should I pull the projectiles and start over(I bought another die set with the correct crimp)?

If they are not HOT loads, just go shoot them. If you must, you can recrimp them with a roll crimp but, most likely it is not needed.

They will be fine.

Taper will work just fine, use roll crimp next time.

Nice Rig Sir, I often wish I still had my 67 Bronco. Ours, were the real Broncos. Before Ford decided to stretch them into Ford Blazers.

Yes that looks like a Denver Bronco. Well done.

I knew a girl in high school whose father knew/did work for Bill Stroppe. I was never sure what the relationship was between them, but it was both friendly and financial as I understood it. Her Bronco, done over by Stroppe, was maroon, not the red, white and blue norm. I loved that Bronco....the girl dated both my little brother and my best friend.

On topic, so long as you are not using a very slow powder, the taper crimp should be fine.

It's still just a Ford.
