bullet seating die
Hey guys i have a question about a bullet seating die. Im loading .45acp useing a Lee 4 turret press. As of right now im using a Lee 4 die set to do the job. I found a Redding competition seating die at a really deal and i was wondering if anyone could shed some light on that die?

What do expect it to do for you? It'll look cool and tactical on your' press and will aid as a scale in setting bullet depth but as far as improving your shooting very few would see any benefits. When it comes to handgun shooting the shooter themselves is by far the weakest link. If your looking for a weak link in the lee dies look toward the FCD and it's swaging effect on bullet diameter.

I would look for these fine Redding Comp dies in rifle caliber, not handguns. If you get it for almost nothing, it's a different story :-)
