I have been trying to figure out some way to crimp on my home made checks. I thought some kind of collet die, like the Lee FCD would be just the ticket. Welllll, I have a FCD die......
I shortened a case the length of a check, inserted a check cup down in the brass and sized it in place, placed a boolit with a check on top of the case and inserted everything into the factory crimp die and ..... NOTHIN.... Not enough motion from the collet to reach the check without the thickness of the brass around it.
Well, almost a really good idea.
