Yup, this is how I make my dummy rounds. Only thing that's different is that I use a spent primer because if I don't, I sometimes end up lighting off the "live dummy" round!

Re: Crimp for 10mm in a revolver
Believe I said that?? Yup, sure did, 3rd line.
Wow, dont do that to me Sparky, had me scared for a second.
Thought I screwed up, that seems to happen pretty often these days,
A byproduct of old age I guess ??
No, getting old doesn't suck, its the wildest, bestest, "A" Ticket ride of all !!
But, for me, "being" old sure does bite :)
