Lee 3-Die Set for .458 SOCOM Caliber Reloading

This precision-engineered three-die set, crafted from hardened steel, is specifically designed for the meticulous reloading of .458 SOCOM cartridges, ensuring optimal case resizing, powder charging, and bullet seating for superior ballistic performance.

The set includes the following components:

Full-Length Sizing Die: This hardened steel die is engineered to fully resize the cartridge case and remove the spent primer, restoring the case to factory specifications. It is essential to lubricate the case adequately before resizing to prevent case sticking and ensure smooth operation during the resizing process.

Expanding Die: Designed to expand the case mouth uniformly, this die facilitates precise powder charge introduction. Reloaders can manually measure powder charges using a powder measure or employ an automated powder dispenser calibrated for consistent load weights, optimizing internal ballistics and maintaining safe chamber pressures.

Bullet Seating Die: This adjustable die allows for precise control over bullet seating depth, enabling the projectile to be seated to the desired overall cartridge length (OAL). It also initiates the case mouth crimping process, securing the bullet firmly in place. Caution is advised during crimping to avoid excessive force, which can deform or damage the brass cases, compromising cartridge integrity and accuracy.

Shell Holder: Included is a compatible shell holder designed to securely hold .458 SOCOM cases during the reloading cycle, ensuring proper alignment and consistent die engagement.

Powder Scoop: A specialized powder scoop is provided for manual powder measurement and transfer, facilitating accurate and repeatable powder charges during the reloading process.

Load Data Sheet: The kit includes a comprehensive load data sheet detailing recommended powder types and charge weights. Note that the data does not specify Spanish-manufactured powders; reloaders should cross-reference with local powder specifications to ensure safe and effective load development.

This Lee 3-Die Set for .458 SOCOM is an indispensable tool for precision reloaders seeking to maximize the performance and reliability of their hunting and tactical ammunition through meticulous case preparation, powder charging, and bullet seating techniques.
