Used as the final step in the reloading process, it removes the flare left by the expander die, sets the proper case mouth diameter, and produces uniform crimp tension so rounds feed reliably and ignite consistently.

The taper crimp geometry is the correct choice for auto-pistol cartridges like the \u003cstrong\u003e45 ACP\u003c\/strong\u003e, where a roll crimp would deform the bullet or interfere with magazine feeding in semi-auto pistols, and it works equally well on the longer revolver cases that share the same .45-caliber bullet diameter.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003eThe die is machined from \u003cstrong\u003ehardened steel\u003c\/strong\u003e to address the crimp inconsistencies caused by softer, poorly designed dies, and is threaded \u003cstrong\u003e7\/8\"-14\u003c\/strong\u003e for use on virtually any standard reloading press that accepts the large-series thread pattern.
