Rick, whose roll crimper are you using? I have a Ballistic Products 16 ga. roll crimper, but am not satisfied with the rolled edge. It only has one ball, but they sell another with 2.
I have an old one that has 4 balls. It's the old bench top type that you crank.
I have to see what the heck I did with it.

I have the old bench mount ones for 10, 12 and 16, all in good shape. I like the way they work on the federal papers, and they do OK on the plastic, although a second load takes some heating and straightening of the hulls' mouth on the plastic ones.

I will post some pictures later of the results - we have family coming tomorrow - so I'm busy between getting some cooking prep done, and trying to get the dog hair out of the hidden corners
