Hi folks-
I'm a newbie to boolit casting, but I am sliding farther and farther down that slippery slope.
I just purchased a Trapdoor Springfield and am casting some 405 grain boolits using the Lee hollow base single cavity die (Lee Item #90268). No problems casting the boolits, (well, nothing that a 30 lb fire extinguisher couldn't fix) but I have a question about seating them.
The boolit has 3 grease grooves, and above the last grease groove their is a small ring, not a flat or a crimping groove or cannelure.
Should I crimp this above the ring, or below it in the third grease groove? I tried crimping above the ring, but did not get much of a crimp.
I have attempted to attach a picture.
Any help would be much appreciated. I hope to shoot the old girl on the 4th of July.
