Those crimpers aren't really made for electrical connectors. They may work well on certain specific wire but not so much on others.
Another thing that you might like to have is a ferrule kit with crimping tool. I love mine. They are a real game changer for smaller stranded wire (22G-7G). You strip off the appropriate amount of insulation then slip the ferrule over the wire and crimp it. No more struggling with lose wire ends. The ferrule makes a far superior connection.
If you use those twisted solid strand wires, it would be a good idea to either solder them at the end and/or use ferules.
