.45ACPHornady 3 Die Taper Crimp Set
This is a really nice die set, I had been using an vintage RCBS die set that was really particular on the type of case lube used or you would get a stuck casing during the resizing of the casing but this set uses the titanium sizing ring which simplifies life. But there is one inherent flaw with the die set which is an area of machine marks in the seating and crimp die which has some ridges in the seating sleeve that can be smoothed out with a scotch brite pad or else you will get a jolt in the downward stroke of your reloading press, and is not really a big deal unless your your using a progr...

Very Nice Die set
Enjoy this die set, do not use the primer punch on the sizing die but other than that works great in Hornady LNL system. I have used thus far in a small batch of bullets from beginning to end no snags and some was used under lubed.
Pros:
- Warranty
- Qualtiy
Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- Pistol Reloading
Would recommend: Yes

Hornady 45 dies
Dies are just as expected from Hornady, good product. Optics Planet shipped quickly. I used the dies to reload right away and had no problems setting up dies in my older Hornady progressive Pro-Jector press.

Hornady 3 Die Taper Crimp Set
I got a good price from Optics Planet on these die sets. The price goes up and down like a Yoyo so you have to check often when shopping for a new set of dies. I like the design of their dies and the way the work in conjunction with the Hornady Lock-N-Load Die Bushings. I only have the Hornady Lock-N-Load Auto Progressive Press so I have only ever used Hornady products with it. A good price, they do what they are meant to do and are backed by a Lifetime Warranty. That's all I need.
Pros:
- lifetime warranty
- Priced well (although that probably changes some).
- Made well
Cons:
- None...yet
Best Used for:
- Hornady Lock-N-Load AP
Would recommend: Yes
Easy set up and quick adjustments
The dies were easy to set up and the adjustments are simple. The resizing die came with extra pins which is a plus and the seater crimp die worked exactly as expected, freeing up an extra slot for a bullet feeder or powder check. Expander die is good too.
Would recommend: Yes

Well made but confusing to set up.
These dies seem really well made compared to my Lee 9mm 4-die set. I have a hornady LNL AP and the dies fit perfectly into the bushings. The only issue I had was with the seater/crimper die. After reading the instructions multiple times, I was still confused with how it worked and struggled to get the crimp set properly. Now after going through the setup process a second time, I understand how this die works and how to configure it properly. Even with the steeper learning curve, I would still recommend it.
Pros: Fit and finish is very nice...Locking rings keep things in place.
Cons: Setting up the bullet seater/crimper took a few tries to figure out.

Hornady 9mm 3 die set
Consistency is good but could be better.
Sizing die is very good and works effectively and accurately.
Seating is good but could be more consistent.
Crimp is very good and predictable.
Pros: Reasonable cost and good performance. Frees up another die position for a Feeder.
Cons: Not extremely happy with the seating die. It is repeatable but could be more consistent.
