I have found that this method eliminates any wad insertion problems ( during the next reload) and distress at the mouth of the hull. Thus the hulls last much longer and they are easier to reload next time.----It works for me.

Daryl there was an earlier post that included a chart showing significant increases in pressure from seeming subtle difference in the depth of a folded crimp. I have to wonder about the amount of resistance a bead of hot glue provides and if it is more or less than a traditional roll crimp and thus effecting pressure up or down?
