PISTOL AND RIFLE: Bullet Seating Plug
The bullet seater plug that comes with the die set is as close to generic as we can make it. If you find that the bullet seater plug deforms the nose of the bullet you are trying to seat, we can make a custom bullet seater plug to fit your bullet.
We need:
- Payment of $12.00 ($8.00 + $4.00 processing fee)
- 1 sample bullet

Carbide Handgun 3-Die Set
The carbide handgun 3-die set consist of a carbide sizing die, which requires no case lubrication, a powder through expander die and a seater crimper die. This option is applicable only for calibers that have straight walled case design. The range would be from as small as the .25 ACP to the 480 Ruger.
We need:
- Payment of $272.00 ($230.00 set-up charge + cost of the dies $38.00 + $4.00 processing fee)
- 5 fired cases
- 3 bullets or cartridge and chamber dimensions
Lead time on these sets can be as long as 180 days as a new carbide ring must be made and ground for your cartridge.
The set-up charge is a one time per order charge, therefore additional die sets of the same caliber requested in the same order bear only the applicable cost of the dies. If 25 die sets are ordered at one time, we waive the set-up charge.

Factory Crimp Dies
RIFLE:
A Custom Factory Crimp Die for rifle cartridges can be made for any cartridge with a bullet diameter up to .458 inch and a maximum outer diameter at the base of .580.
We need:
- Payment of $29.00 ($25.00 + $4.00 processing fee)
- Dummy cartridge (a bullet seated in an empty case)
Rifle Factory Crimp Dies are cartridge specific and there are a few that cannot be made. Any handgun case that is of a bottleneck design qualifies because the die would have to made much like the rifle factory crimp dies but we do not make die bodies shorter than that you would find on a .223 Remington. Examples would be the 30 Mauser, 7.62 x 25 and the .357 Sig. The 50 AE also applies because the case is too short for the die bodies available.
PISTOL:
Custom Carbide Factory Crimp Dies for handgun cartridges can be made for most handgun cartridges that are not in regular stock. Sizes available run from 25 ACP sized cases up to the 480 Ruger. The 50 AE cannot be made because the carbide ring necessary for this cartridge is too large for our manufacturing process.

- Payment of $34.00 ($30.00 + $4.00 processing fee)
