I've come into an old used RCBS sizing die. The top of it has "38 SP SIZE #1 75" stamped into it. Is this a tungsten carbide or steel die?
I don't know about mandatory lubing for steel dies but it would probably be wise to keep the lube of your choice handy.
is it mandatory or just highly recommended dor steel dies?
Mandantory.
Isn't that what I said? Required for steel."...Mandantory..." What?..............." Essential for steel. Not required for carbide.
It may work that way, but that is still lubing. Lube is mandatory for steel dies. How much lube may be up for debate, but lubing is required.On straight walled ammo, lube is not mandatory. It is a good idea to lube the first one and then every 4th or 5th case
