Hello All,
I am new to reloading and still waiting for my equipment to be delivered. I started by reading several loading books (Hornady, Lyman) as well as this on-line book on cast boolits http://www.lasc.us/ArticlesFryxell.htm
I am unclear about setting the OAL and crimping of cast boolits as unlike plated / jacketed bullets, cast boolits have grooves for lubrication and crimping? So say for a .45acp jacketed bullet using X grains of Bullseye powder, the OAL is 2.65, what do I do if a plated bullet has a lubrication groove and not a crimp groove with the bullet set at that length?
