Anyone out there reload for the .22 hornet? If so do you crimp your rounds? I have never crimped them but was looking at some 35 grain V-Max factory loads the other day and they have been crimped into the cannelure.

I wonder why they would crimp this round unless they have so much powder packed into it that they must crimp or the round will grow. I load mine pretty live with 13 grains of Lil Gun and they are compressed but I have not had any issues with them growing after I seat the bullet.

Any input is greatly appreciated
