Default RE: 45-70 Suggestions

Is a taper crimp more consistent than a roll crimp? With the roll crimper is it possible to over crimp? As long as I don't see any deformation of the bullet then it should be good right?

Also had a couple of other questions

What should I do with that one bullet that kind of bulged?

Also since my bullet is smaller than the recommended OAL of 2.55", am I running the risk of excessive head space and thereby increasing the chamber pressure? I think I used the right terminology there. Not 100% sure.

Thanks

Tom
