RCBS Carbide 3-Die Set for .45 ACP
RCBS pioneered the modern 3-die set concept for straight-wall pistol cartridges, and this .45 ACP set represents the culmination of that engineering expertise. Whether you're a dedicated handloader or new to the reloading bench, this set provides everything needed to produce reliable, accurate ammunition.
What's Included
Carbide Sizer Die
- Sizes the case back to factory dimensions
- De-primes spent primers simultaneously
- Features a carbide sizer ring that eliminates the need for case lubricant, saving time and cleanup
Expander Die
- Expands the case mouth to proper diameter for bullet acceptance
- Imparts the necessary case mouth flare or bell for reliable bullet feeding
- Ensures consistent case preparation
Taper Crimp Seater Die
- Seats bullets to precise depth
- Applies a taper crimp rather than a roll crimp, preferred by many .45 ACP shooters for semi-automatic pistols
- Produces finished rounds ready for the range
