Got the latest barnes play boy and after reading away and looking at factory barnes loads I noticed the crimping. Does any one crimp there reloads? thank's
 
Nope - loaded 1,000's of Barnes and have never crimped.

Very heavy recoiling rifles (rifles that generate 30+ foot pounds of free recoil) require crimping but generally it is not needed otherwise.
 
The TTSX rocks! What caliber and cartridge are you loading?
