You'll want to roll crimp.

I found that I could never get my .45 ACP (or Auto Rim) loads to chamber easily in my M25 until I had run them through a .45 Auto Rim roll crimp die. I would expect a .45 Schofield roll crimp die would also give you a good result, but I can't attest to that from personal knowledge.

The taper crimped cases always seem to want to hang up in the chamber for me, even when I apply the taper crimp pretty hard.
