It's been years since I used a PW800b but it's quite a bit different than a 375. As I recall, I didn't really need the crimp starter installed to get a decent looking shell. The crimp starter will get the folds lined up and started properly. It looks to me like the crimp die needs adjustment. Look at page 3-4 for how to adjust the crimp.

If you screw up, just eject the shell and cut the hull open and separate the components to use again. The only thing you waste is the hull.
