I have 2 lee presses and have been using Lee dies (set of 4). I am thinking of trying another brand of dies. Any recommendations are appreciated. Do any othe brands have the equivalent of Lee's Factory Crimp die? Thanks
Why? If you don't know what feature you want, then you're wasting your money. Buy a feature because you think it will help you in some way.I am thinking of trying another brand of dies.
Redding makes an approximation of Lee's Pistol FCD, but it does the same work for 5x the money.Do any other brands have the equivalent of Lee's Factory Crimp die?
Don't forget easy snap ring disassembly for cleaning without having to remove die from tool head (Dillon).I have bought brands for caliber availability (Redding), sliding seating sleeves (Hornady), micrometer seating stems (Redding, Hornady), warranty (RCBS), and price (Lee).

Interesting. Lee’s customer service is as good as or far better than most in my experience.I don't like Lee's customer service at all. I had an issue once and sent them a e mail.
All I got was their worthless catalog.
There are a few things lee makes that I still use, but very little.
I like the universal deprimeing die.
The old style hand priming tool.
The new bench prime tool.
Their factory crimp dies.
That's about it.
I got rid of a bunch of lee reloading stuff because of their pi$$ poor customer service.
Most of my dies are Hornady and RCBS.
