Ok, so while I was browsing my LGS, I came across a used "3 die carbide set" for .45 acp. I opened the box up, and voila! There were 3 dies and a shell holder box. So I looked at the price, $15! So I thought to myself, I'd be stupid NOT to scoop up this deal. So I did, and away I went.
When I got home, I was looking it over, and realized the sizer was a Lee, and it came with a Lee powder through die, with an RCBS seater/crimper die. And the little shell holder box had no shell holder, but instead what looked like a small 2 piece primer holder.
For $15, I wasn't devasted. Just bummed there was no shell holder.
My question lies with the RCBS die. Idk if it's carbide or not. It has wax caked on it, so I was iffy. I'm going to drop them all into the ultrasonic tank at work this week to clean them up.
What do you all think?
