Used to reload a lot of .38 back in the day using round nosed lead bullets. I have been inactive and recently started reloading and shooting again. I'm wanting to load RNFP bullets and the old seater die in my RCBS set absolutely mangles flat nose bullets.
I think it time for a new set of dies and started shopping. I always like my RCBS die sets in carbide but I'm looking for recommendations for a .38 Special die set and a 9mm die set.
I wanna load primarily flat nose bullets and hollow points as well as wadcutters for the .38's. Do most new dies seat a variety if bullet types or do I have to buy specific seating stems? I recently bought .32 ACP dies from CH4D and love them....the seat die seats flat noses right out of the box without modification.
I'd order dies from CH4D but don't wanna wait for delivery of up to 6 weeks if I can buy .38 Special and 9mm dies "off the shelf" or in stock.
Thanks in advance for nay help you might offer as I have been largely inactive in reloading for over 30 years but my .32 ACP loads are awesome and cracking.
