25 acp Crimp Die

[Hondo 60]

Does anyone make a taper crimp die in 25 acp?

i've done a fair amount of searching, but I haven't found one.

And yes, I know the frustration of trying to reload the tiny bugger
but I have lotsa time on my hands.

As it's not a revolver cartridge, just about everybody's seater die (except Hornady) is going to taper crimp. Just remove the seater plug and voila, a taper crimp die!

Can't you just squeeze them little guys in your fingers and roll them a bit?

i reload 25 acp, well i did back in the 80's. like you i had lots of free time and want to make a better 25 acp load for my backup gun. i do't know of any taper crimp die for the 25 acp. i have rcbs dies and never need to traper crimp for the 25 jetfire.

I was curious so I did a google search. A quick search just showed RCBS, Redding, Hornady and Lee. I dunno which manufacturers sell the dies separately...

25 acp is about the only caliber I don't have a Lee crimp die for. Nobody I know sells them. And searching the leeprecision.com website, I believe the only option would be to use their custom services page which involves submitting a fired case or two.

I don't see anything listed but CH4D will probably make it for you.

As posted, buy a .25 ACP seater and remove the seater stem.
