Great video. It's really gonna be helpful for a guy like me who is just starting out. I have two questions.

1) Is the cutter you use in the beginning a necessity? Not sure why shells would be too long and I haven't heard anyone else mention one.

2) How do you know when your roll crimp is complete?

Thanks!!

No it is not. You can use snips, or there are several videos where you can use a dowel and a blade.

Check this one https://youtu.be/NulAk1hEeBA

If you are roll crimping you will be trimming.

And here is something that helps with roll crimps!  https://youtu.be/SvJcPJ_45MY

Of course you can get really nuts like I do with gadgets - but I like quality, and consistency within the quality.

And as I am a novice myself, you can do this just as well!!!

You do not have to trim, even if roll crimping. Trimming started for auto loaders. I do go ahead and trim all mine anyway
