Liked your video Mr. Grizz! Very thorough unlike most I have watched (Jabb Intended). Most of the so-called pro reloaders never mention charging or which die the powder goes in. I do not comment much but just wanted to give ya way-to-go! 👍
On the 4 die set the 3rd die is still a seat and crimp die. The 4th die, for Lee anyway, is the factory crimp die which also can "iron out" some deformities that the resizer missed or that was put in during the other processes. This, of course, is about pistol dies and not rifle dies. Great vid though, thank you!
Great explanation, I am new to reloading and I was wondering what the second die was for rcbs. I haven’t gotten to the flaring of case mouth yet, only resizing and re-primer. I am still doing some research for my 45-70 loads.
I can’t speak for anyone else but u definitely helped me because I’m new to reloading and was wondering do I need to buy a four die set or is the three ok. 👍🏾✌🏾
Lee's instruction sheet says the 4th or Crimp die also sizes the brass so it can't be deformed. How important is that? -- Thanks for the video. It was just what I needed.
The first three dies in a Lee set are the same regardless, you can crimp and seat with the 3rd die. The 4th die is a factory crimp die which resizes and crimps
Now I know the difference.I ordered a Lee progressive 4000 press and it only came with 3 dies but the separate other caliber dies I have ordered are 4 die sets.I was really confused but now I know the difference.thanks for the video.I’m still in the process of setting the press up and I know nothing about setting each die to their specifications and the instructions that came with this press may as well been no instructions
A good way to look at it is the dies are 1, 2, and 3
...but on a four die set it's 1, 2, 3a, and 3b.
Thanks 👍 I'm new to reloading. Just got my press and all the tools needed to reload 9mm. I still have much to learn. Great video 👌
Love you older guys you from my paps day more knowledgeable and better at explaining stuff ive reload for years and avoided 4 die sets
Thanks for explaining. I'm in the process of trying to buy some dies right now and this helped answer one of my questions.
Nicely done, I learned something today!
Thank you very much. A big help for someone considering entering the hobby for sure.
yes exactly what i needed thank you very much sir hope you have a great day
In the rifles, the 4 die sets have a Full length die and a neck only sizing die.
The pistols set just add a factory crimp die.
Great explanation. Thank you for helping me understand these dies.
*Great explanation, thank you for sharing*
Awesome vid, thanks from Australia Grizz!
JUST GETTING INTO RELOADING MY SELF & WAS WONDERING ABOUT THAT 3 & 4 DIE SETS,,
the seat die in the lee set also will do a taper crimp ...
Thanks for the video sir.

Excellent, the ah ha moment the Mud is clearer now , am thinking priming after resize & flare the case ??
I’m curious about the difference between a 2 and 3 die set
Good to the point video, thx
Good job

Can you get by with a 3 die a reloading set or do you have to have the 4 die

I'm loading 45 Long Colt and I have the three die lisset but do I need the factory crimp die
How about neck sizing?

On the 4 die set, will the bullet seating die also crimp the bullet?
Or not?
A year late, but yes
1.75 speed works pretty good for this....
I got car sick by 2:30, I'm sure it was good information though. Invest in a tripod
One eye is looking at ya, the other is looking for ya.
how u seat the primer?
I'd also like know
@@alexs.5675 Either with a hand held primer tool or the priming tool built into your press that primes on the full down stroke of the handle.
@@mattrickard3716 Or with a separate non handheld unit
