Great tutorial! Very professional production. You should give your cameraman and editor a raise! :)

[@drsackbarry]

WOW! Very good job and most helpful info. Thanks!

I know this is several years old, but here goes: 1. Eye protection when seating primers! 2. Change how you hold priming tool so it isn't pointing at your face. 3. Stiffen your press mounting until you get NO movement at all in use. You won't believe how much better this will feel and work. At present, with all the bending of the bench/press, you are also stressing the press unnecessarily, besides the lost motion making the work much, much more difficult. More than you can imagine. If you make it so stiff there is virtually no movement, you will be amazed at the difference!!

[@robertwhitedrones5702]

lol look at the bulged shoulder on that first one. lol can someone say "jam". im just joking geat video though.

[@pab1ofresh529]

if you did the powder and crimp for a ton of rounds and you set it up for asmr that would be a great video! Also, i see people reload handgun rounds and shove a wedge on top of the powder. Is that not needed if you crimp?

Can you do 8 mm measure ?

[@MrVideoyoulike]

What is the name of the die you use to make the blanks?

[@rudythompson5359]

Can the crimped cartridges be reused?

[@thewatcher611]

as long as the case mouth doesn't crack, yes. That type of crimp really works the brass a lot.
