| i'm going to make my own leaders,
do I need to buy the crimping tool for the double barrel sleeves or could I get by with something else (needle nose etc??
wondering what works best and if I need to spend the extra $25. |

Buy quality crimper/swager tool and you'll be set for life time.
This is the case when "economy" is not the best option.
