What would be the difference in pressure or velocity if this load were folded crimp rather than a rolled crimp?
Fiocchi cut to 2/1/2" 7/8 oz. Solo 1250 20.5 Fio 616 BP SP-16 1060 7100L BPI Roll Crimp
The load is from the powders spreadsheet from the low pressure reloaders group. Source is actually BPI
Question is generally, how interchangeable are rolled and fold crimps? |

Thanks, Mike...that's what I thought. The tests show a significant gain in pressure and velocity. Mikex |
