Hello,
I just read several outstanding threads here on THR about loading for .357 Sig. Lost of valuable information.
I stopped loading .357 Sig about 9 years ago due to the problems I was having with achieving a consistent finished product. I recently decided to give it a chance again. One of my first problems is the sizing the brass to fit the chamber. I have a set of Dillon carbide dies for both the .40S&W and the .357Sig. Neither sizing die will do a good job of sizing the brass down so it will fit in the Lone Wolf barrel chamber (for Glock 33) I am using as a case gauge.
Is there a better die for sizing the brass down a little better that would work with the shellplate system of the Dillon 550B? I'm not looking for a "push through" method like the Lee Bulge Buster kit. I'm looking for a good recommendation for a quality die that works well with sizing the brass before I size the shoulder with the 357 sizing die.
Thanks in advance for any help, opinions, or other questions that may help.
