If you are just learning and the crimp has you confused, save a factory round. With the shell holder empty and raised all the up, screw the FCD crimp stem up all the way, then turn the FCD die body down to just kiss the shell holder. Place the factory round in the shell holder, raise the ram, and turn the crimp stem down until it just contacts the case. This will give you the same crimp as the factory round. Inspect the case mouth to see the crimp.
