Lee Factory Crimp Die for .338 Lapua Magnum
The Lee 90745 Factory Crimp Die brings precision and consistency to one of the most demanding rifle cartridges in use today. This specialized die addresses a real problem: the .338 Lapua Magnum's reputation for difficult crimping.
How It Works
Unlike conventional dies, the Lee Factory Crimp Die incorporates a collet mechanism that applies a true rifle-type crimp to your cartridge. The collet is powerful enough to form a crimp groove directly into the bullet—you don't need pre-grooved bullets to achieve excellent results.
Performance Benefits
Improved Accuracy: A firm crimp prevents bullet movement during the pressure curve, which means:
- Pressure builds to a higher, more consistent level before the bullet moves
- More uniform pressure curves throughout the firing sequence
- Reduced velocity variation from shot to shot
Versatility: Works with both grooved and non-grooved bullets, giving you flexibility in your ammunition selection.
Specifications
- Large Series threading (1 1/4x12)
- Compatible with Lee Classic Cast Press
- Designed specifically for .338 Lapua Magnum
For serious .338 Lapua Magnum reloaders, this die transforms a notoriously difficult cartridge into a pleasure to load.
