Product Description

The Lee Precision carbide factory crimp die is designed to give reloaders the perfect crimp on each round of reloaded ammunition. The factory crimp die crimps the bullet more firmly in place than any other die with more uniform pressure. The carbide factory crimp die features a carbide ring that sizes the cartridge while it is being crimped so every round will positively chamber freely with factory-like dependability. The adjusting screw quickly and easily sets the desired amount of crimp while a factory-like crimp is added to more firmly hold the bullet in place. Lee testing has shown that using a factory crimp die provides a more uniform pressure curve, increasing the accuracy of any bullet. A firm crimp is essential for dependable and accurate ammunition. Specifications: - cartridge: .38 special - number of dies: 1 - die type: factory crimp - threads: 7/8 inch -14 - shellholder included: no - storage box included: yes

.357 Magnum: I got this because my standard die set wasn't cutting the mustard. This die was super easy to use with finger adjustments. It put a very tight crimp perfectly in the cannelure after I used my other seating die. I cranked down hard on an old cartridge and the case didn't buckle. All the shells dropped right into my Blackhawk cylinder without catching. It came with a splined jam nut instead of the hex-nut of the old style and It came in a nice, sturdy black case but no shell holder included.

I bought this for loading 38 special and 357 magnum. Follow the simple directions and you will have a uniform crimp. You will found out that if you use turret or progressive presses that it is much easier to seat the bullet with one die and the Lee Carbide Factory Crimp die to crimp with. As long as you trim your brass to the same length you will always get a uniform crimp. I have one of these dies for most of the handgun calibers that I reload. Besides getting a good crimp it has a carbide insert that insures the entire cartridge is completely sized. I have not had any issues using this die as long as I follow the written instructions included with the die!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than factory results.

The standard 3 die set for the 38/357 uses a modified roll crimp in the bullet seating die. It's good, and has not failed me, but I wanted a very solid crimp on my full power magnum loads. You are limited to the amount of crimp you can use on the seating die. If you over-crimp it will try to push the bullet down after it starts crimping causing the case to buckle. This is most prevalent with Federal brass. What the factory crimp die does is let you set the seating die to a standard crimp, then run a full taper crimp after the bullet is seated. This eliminates case buckling. It also pushes the modified roll crimp from the seating die even further in which leaves a perfect, tight crimp every single time. The crimps are more consistent than most factory ammo. I also have the factory crimp die for my 45 ACP setup. The only downside to using a factory crimp die is that it adds a little more resistance to the lever pull if you are using a progressive press. I use a 5 die setup(redundant sizers) and it does take a bit of a push to complete each cycle. Well worth if for better-than-factory ammo that can be produced at over 300 rounds an hour.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth buying and adding to reloading regiment
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2020

Originally I bought the 9mm RCBS reloading dies. I wish I would have bought the lee 4 set reloading dies instead. I added the lee factory crimp die to help complete my reloading set. I was having issues with my 9mm rounds chambering when I started using the Hornady AP press. But since i added lee factory crimp die to my press it has fixed the issue. Lee factory crimp die helps iron and smooth out any irregular bulges. By doing that, it helps the rounds load flawlessly. Now all my rounds load with no issues. I also bought the lee factory crimp die for my 45acp. Worth every penny

I reloaded both 38 Special and 357. Crimps were perfect, and finished bullets slid into the chamber as smooth as any factory made.

Better than expect results. Very happy with the results. Worth the investment.
