Lee Manufacturing

I recall somewhere reading, I think it was in Lee literature that they make dies for some other brand of die besides "Lee". Does anyone know who that may be?

 

[RustyFN]

I have never heard that but did see a TV show where they toured the RCBS plant. They said on that show that RCBS made dies for another company but wouldn't say who.

Inquiring minds want to know ...

This could get interesting ...

I would not be surprised if both Lee and RCBS do not make their own dies. I would not be surprised if they are made by the same sub contractor.

But, I would not be surprised if I was totally wrong.

WOW This would be a good time to start a false interweb rumor now wouldn't it. Naw I just cant do that. I am willing to bet that someone does make a die or two for some company other than themselves. Why waste your equipment by letting it sit idle when it could be working and give a faster payback on your investment. I would do it if I owned one of these companies.

Standing order, to be observed by all concerned personnel: If you don't hear a rumor by 0900 hours, it is your assignment to start one!!!!!!!!!
Carry on, Lad!!

Lee make a sizing die .001 undersize for a company called evolution gun works. Price is 29.00

Thanks; that validates my suspicion.

Learn something every day. EGW undersize dies are made by Lee. Even says so on the EGW web site.
