I bury a moderate roll crimp dead-center into the drive band between the lube grooves, and things go well in a Broomhandle, a ChiCom Type 54 Tokarev, and the CZ-52.
I don't paint bullets. I like Black Rifle Coffee. Sacred cows are always fair game. California is to the United States what Syria is to Russia and North Korea is to China/South Korea/Japan--a Hermit Kingdom detached from the real world and led by delusional maniacs, an economic and social basket case sustained by "foreign" aid so as to not lose military bases.
Thats the combo I use, along with a pretty healthy dose of H-110 on top of a mag primer. I get about 1500 fps out of that load. A note on that load, that is with cut down and resized .223 Remington brass. I wouldn't try loading anything that hot with a 100g boolit at that velocity. Its almost, if not a max load. Not to mentioned takes a little effort and playing with it to compress the powder enough to get it seated right.
As for nose length, I'm kinda stuck up north for the remainder of the week (going to school), if you would have asked yesterday morning I could get that info for you
But when I go back down this weekend I try and remember to get that data for you and post it. If someone else doesn't before me.
Currently looking for a Lyman/Ideal 311419 Mold - PM if you have one you'd like to get rid of!

Jdgabbard's very own boolit boxes pattern!
Like the boolit and have used it with 6.5 herco in 7.62x25 tok. (cz52)

I've been looking for load data on the 120gr (115?) 311359 GC bullet as I have reloadable 7.62 brass and a few of those bullets put back waiting on the data.
Any load data for that combination with other powders?
