I was loading up some VERY wide meplate 300 gr. 45 colt bullets last night and I had several of the cases buckle on me when crimping with the Redding Profile Crimp die. These are heavy loads, so I needed a good crimp. Anywho, I wound up with 25 "normal" cartridges and 10 that are buckled. The buckled rounds drop into the cylinder no problem. Are these safe to shoot? I would assume the brass would stretch out and fill the cylinder thus ironing out the problem.
God Bless,
