does anyone crimp the 32 S&W ... or 32 S&W Long?

[noylj]

For a revolver, you roll crimp.
Lead bullet should have crimp groove or you crimp into the top lube band.

very, very light taper crimp....

[Guesser]

Yes I do just for uniformity if nothing else.

+1. Even with the max .32S&W loads ina solid frame revolver there is going to be any bullet "jump" from recoil if the bullets are the right size. The light taper crimp eases cartridge insertion into the chamber and allows for a slight improvement in ignition umiformity. It should not be over done.
