Hi guys.....Am putting together some +P 38 Special loads with some 158 gr JHP using BE86. Alliant says the max is 5.7 gr of BE86 and list a minimum OAL of 1.5 inches, see here: https://www.alliantpowder.com/reload...8&cartridge=27
When I go for that minimum OAL though I'm way off the crimping groove of the 158 gr JHP, should I crimp to the groove or crimp to the min OAL that Alliant list in their data? Any advice or thoughts are appreciated.....thanks!
