Lee Factory Crimp Rifle Die For 303 British - A carbide sizer is included with this Lee reloading die; it will post size your cartridges as they are crimped. To ensure a crisp and consistent crimp, the cartridge case mouths are expanded with crimping dies that have more "kick" than the bullet is. This provides the crimp that the reloading presses are designed for. The style of the bullet impression left in the dies by Lee, Saeco, Norma and others, is dependent on the style of bullet and crimping press used. Over-crimping can result in accuracy problems. However, a little care can prevent serious damage to your Lee Factory Crimp Dies and Reloading Dies, and even jacketed bullets. Care should be taken with the brand of bullet and caliber crimp die used. Precise seating of the bullet in the die is critical to ensure a crisp, clean crimp. A firm crimp improves accuracy because the bullet is crimped against the case mouth instead of an expansion chamber. A firm crimp improves accuracy because the bullet is forced against the case mouth instead of having an expansion built into the mouth of the bullet. With most auto-loading pistol magazines it is necessary to seat the bullet in the chamber as it is loaded. This ensures chambering of the bullet and gives it the "snap" needed to chamber it.![]()
