I guess what I'm getting at is that the crimp is below the case mouth and could possibly flare the case mouth. All of my factory crimp dies are for rounds that seat off the belt or shoulder and they crimp at the mouth.
Nope, that LeGendre Side Crimp wont give you any problems. It's purpose is to dramatically increase bullet pull, giving the powder a much better "Cook". It can decrease accuracy, if you try to put to much crimp on, but the benefits, for the hunter, way out-weigh the negatives.
FMJ's..I had a customer kill a Cow Moose, after the FMJ traveled the length of a Bull Moose, a two-fer. As you know, even a 300 Mag, will rarely penetrate a Moose end to end, whereas with the 450b, that mission is just a walk in the park, when the right load/bullet are used.
A word about the LeGendre Side Crimp, it is said, that, that LeGendre character, is a dead ringer for Brad Pitt, as a mater of fact, the Rock, is LeGendre's Body Double.. wink..
