Double-check the overall length of a dummy round if you crimp into the bullet cannelure to be sure a round will fit and feed.

You may not need to crimp at all for the Savage 99, especially if you get a good tight friction fit on those jacketed bullets. Fire a magazine full, all but the last round. If it shows no sign of bullet movement (in or out) you should be fine. The 32-40 is such a light recoilling round that all should be well.
