The brass doesn't last long in my Anaconda. I'm using a carbide die, Lee, so the rounds have a Coke bottle effect and the brass quickly splits after a few reloads. Redding makes a dual ring carbide die to fix this.
What's the difference in the set options? What would you get, I'll be loading on a Dillon 550.
Dual Ring Carbide Sizing Die Sets
Dual Ring Carbide Sizing Dies are the correct answer to the compromise that has
plagued traditional carbide dies of all manufacturers since their creation.
The traditional sizing ring is required to perform double duty which it can not do. It is
required to size the case sufficiently to secure the bullet (with even the thinnest brass)
which all do with some success. From that point however, all traditional carbide dies
resize the remainder of your cases excessively.
The price of this compromise is shortened case life of your overworked brass, unsightly
appearance and less than ideal chamber fit which may lead to an adverse effect on
accuracy.
The Redding solution is unique, incorporating two carbide rings within one sizing die.
The upper ring is positioned to size only the bullet retention portion of the cartridge case
while the other is configured to properly size the case body without overworking the
brass. Your sized cases will not only look good and function better but brass life will
increase.
Since customers have been asking for Dual Ring Dies in complete sets, we are now
packaging them in the same three configurations as our traditional die sets, as well as
individually.
