    Hey mate

    I load 150gr ttsx in my 7mmRM, I use a taper crimp to hold them in place and they don't move under recoil, advantage of this is you don't need a cannelure to crimp them.

    Bear in mind that I had always intended them as a hunting load so they were developed from word go with a crimp, crimping an already developed load will change the pressures slightly so you probably will have to do some more development if you go this route.

    Good luck!
