<p>Redding handgun cartridge crimp dies were designed for those who want the best possible crimp. Profile crimp dies provide a tighter more uniform roll type crimp and requires the bullet to be seated to the correct depth in a previous operation. These dies are not for cartridges that headspace on the case mouth.</p><p>All progressive die sets are supplied with a profile crimp die (or taper crimp die if the cartridge headspaces on the case mouth) because the best possible crimp is attained after the bullet is seated.</p><p>The design of the Redding Profile Crimp Die is an example that came about from an attempt to help silhouette shooters solve the typical &ldquo;half moon&rdquo; crimp so prevalent with magnum handgun cartridges. Redding&#39;s solution to the problem not only solved the ugly half crimp but proved to tighten groups as well.</p>
