RCBS Legacy 3-Die Roll Crimp Set for .40-65 Sharps
Black powder cartridge shooting remains a vital part of American shooting heritage, and RCBS recognizes this with their Legacy series of reloading dies. This 3-die set is purpose-built for handloaders who shoot original or reproduction black powder rifles chambered in .40-65 Sharps.
What's Included
- Sizer Die: Sizes the case to proper dimensions and removes spent primers. Cases require lubrication before sizing.
- Expander Die: Opens the case mouth to proper diameter for bullet seating and imparts the necessary flare or bell for reliable bullet feeding.
- Seater Die: Seats the bullet and applies a roll crimp to secure the projectile in the case.
Design Features
This set is specifically engineered for straight-wall cartridges like the .40-65 Sharps. The roll crimp design is traditional and appropriate for black powder loads, ensuring bullets stay in place during the firing cycle of vintage and reproduction rifles.
Who Should Consider This
If you're committed to shooting authentic black powder cartridges in Sharps rifles or other period-correct firearms, this die set provides the specialized tools necessary for consistent, reliable ammunition production.
