    I'll dream along with you Chuck. Particularly for that WFN.

    How many of us need to email rmr to put a cannelure on their 147gr smile bullet.

    That being said, how important IS the cannelure with Lee FCD?

    I really wonder about that...
    And you could still do a touch of roll crimp with a regular die. And you are not shooting them in a Scandium J-frame. But it seems to me like a 147g had a nice seating depth with a lotta contact between the bullet and case. But if some cases are thin, then maybe.

    Plus they are an actual. 357. Rmr states they have a thick jacket that can accept a crimp

    I just had another 800rds if swc come in last night. I think I might try the rmr bullets next. Or I'll keep the swc for .38s and try the 147s in .357 since I just got another box of 147 gr HSTs to load up.
