Lee Carbide Factory Crimp Die, .40 S&W/10mm

Lee Carbide Factory Crimp Die for .40 S&W / 10mm Auto

The Lee Precision Carbide Factory Crimp Die is an essential tool for any serious reloader of the .40 S&W or 10mm Auto cartridges. This die provides a reliable, factory-like crimp that improves both the reliability and the precision of your handloads. Its unique design sizes the entire cartridge after the bullet has been seated, ensuring every round will feed smoothly and chamber perfectly in any firearm.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Post-Sizing Carbide Ring: A solid carbide ring sizes the finished cartridge after the bullet is seated. This critical step removes any case bulge and guarantees that every round will chamber with factory-like reliability.
• Improves Reliability & Accuracy: Applying a firm, uniform crimp prevents bullet setback during feeding in semi-automatic pistols and promotes consistent powder ignition, a key factor for improving accuracy.
• Adjustable Crimp Level: A simple adjustment screw on top of the die allows for quick and easy fine-tuning of the desired amount of crimp.
• Forgiving of Case Length Variations: This die design is not overly sensitive to slight differences in case trim length, saving the reloader time and streamlining the process.
• No Lubrication Needed: The internal carbide ring requires no case lube, making the final crimping step clean and efficient.
