Redding Profile Crimp Die .38-40 Winchester Product description

  1. Profile Crimp Design: This die features a specialized profile crimp that precisely forms the case mouth into the bullet's cannelure, providing superior bullet retention unique from standard crimps. Ideal for cartridges used in tubular magazines, preventing bullet movement.
