35 Remington Crimp

I crimp mine just enough to push the edge of the case mouth into the crimp groove, like this Hornady FTX beside a 300BLK.

I figured you’d like the side by side profile.
 
I use the FCDie sometimes, but not as much as the seating die’s built in crimp. Accuracy seems better without the factory crimp die (FCD), but I do use it anytime I am concerned about bullet setback.
 
I use a 30-30 marlin 336 cb for nra lever action silhouette matches. I shoot just over 3k rounds each year during/between practice and matches. I use the lee factory crimp die. Works well.
