The main reason for the crimp and the canatlure is to keep bullets in the mag. from pulling during fireing of the rifle. The recoil of the AR is not great so crimpimg bullets in the canatlure is probibly not nessary to keep them from backing out of the case. I shoot all bolt or single shot break gun and load for accuracy and have found that it is best to pay no attention to the cantlure and seat the bullet for it most accurate jump.
As for the pulled bullets, FROM WHAT I HEAR, them make good blasting ammo and are CLOSE TO new FMJ in accuracy.
