WOW! Crimping Really Works..(pics)

I finally shot the CRIMPED rounds that I loaded for my CZ 22 Hornet.

I took Rocky's advice and loaded up some Hogden LiL-Gun (13 gr.) and 45 gr Nosler "Hornet" bullets with Rem 6 1/2 primers.Win brass

Here are 3 of the groups I shot a couple of months ago that were NOT CRIMPED. The largest group was just over 1 1/2" and the smallest was about .93"







These are 3 of the 4 groups I shot today with the same load as mentioned above but I CRIMPED all the rounds. The group that I did not get a pic of was .62"

I am now a believer in crimping. I pretty much cut my groups in half and then some..
