I have been reloading for years with the same dies I bought back in the early eighties. I don't think any of them are carbide. When reloading pistol I never lube the cases, and they go into the resizing die with no problem. I recently bought another set of 44 mag dies on ebay that were never used, but quite old, since they had a price tag on them when bought new of $14.00. I wanted them so I could have a setup for 44 mag, and one for 44 special in seperate heads for my dillion 550b.
Here's the problem. I have to do a chin up on the press lever to get a shell to go into the sizing die. When I look in the bottom of my lyman die, the shinny resizing ring is about 1/2 inch deep. When I look into the new dies I bought, the resizing ring is about one inch deep. What did I buy?
Thanks Glenn
