    Crimping in a Marlin lever gun

    I am new to straight wall reloading. I bought a .44 mag marlin and want to know what the best way to crimp is. Ive read about both but none of them actually state which I should use for a marlin. I also would like reccomendations on what die to use. I would like to crimp as a seperate step. Thanks
