I was having lunch today with a shooting pal. Between the two of us we have 80+ years experience reloading, and a question came up for which we have no answer.
No one that I am aware of makes a carbide sizing die for any bottle neck cartridges, nor for the longer straight walled cases like 45-70 or 405 Winchester.
Why?
There has to be a problem of some type in either the production, feasability or durability, but after some thought and discussion, we realized that while we have some opinions, we are a little short on facts.
So, anybody got the skinny on this?
And please, as my old Sgt Major used to say: "Don't tell what you think. Tell me what you know."
