Rifle Dies
The Lee Factory Crimp Die for the 338 Winchester Magnum is designed to ensure that each round of reloaded ammunition has the precise crimp. The Factory Crimp Die crimps the bullet firmly in place with more uniform pressure than any other die. A collet on the Factory Crimp Die squeezes the case mouth into the crimping groove for a secure hold. This is the same crimp seen on manufacturing ammunition. When crimping with a normal roll crimp die, it is practically impossible to buckle the case. According to Lee's research, employing a Factory Crimp Die produces a more consistent pressure curve, which improves bullet accuracy.
Crimps the bullet in place more firmly than any other tool.
It is impossible to buckle the case as with regular roll crimp dies.
Tests demonstrate that even bullets which have no cannelure will shoot more accurately if crimped in place with the Lee Factory Crimp Die.
The bullet is properly crimped in place, factory ammo is often more accurate and better equipped to survive severe handling. Because pressure must rise to a higher level before the bullet moves, a strong crimp enhances accuracy. A more uniform pressure curve and less velocity variation are ensured by the greater start pressure. Powder selection is also less important.
