Factory Crimp Die Cal. 270 Win by LEE

91248

This specialized crimp die has been meticulously engineered to provide an optimal and consistent crimp on your cartridges, ensuring superior bullet retention and enhanced ballistic performance. Unlike conventional dies, this model firmly secures the projectile to the case mouth with exceptional grip strength, without causing any deformation or damage to the brass casing or the crimp groove.

Featuring an integrated collet mechanism, the die applies precise pressure around the case mouth within the crimp groove, delivering a secure and reliable hold. This design innovation prevents bullet setback and ensures consistent cartridge overall length, which is critical for maintaining uniform chamber pressures and reliable cycling in semi-automatic and lever-action firearms.

Extensive testing conducted by Lee Precision has demonstrated that utilizing a Factory Crimp die produces a more uniform pressure curve throughout the firing cycle. This uniformity translates directly into improved shot-to-shot consistency and enhanced accuracy, even when using projectiles that lack traditional crimp grooves. The enhanced crimping process increases the initial resistance the bullet must overcome before movement, resulting in a higher and more consistent initial pressure.

This elevated initial pressure, often referred to as "bullet pull force," stabilizes internal ballistics by minimizing velocity variations and reducing pressure spikes, which are common causes of erratic shot placement. Consequently, shooters experience tighter groupings and more predictable terminal ballistics, essential for precision hunting and competitive shooting disciplines.

Recommended primarily for use with semi-automatic and lever-action rifles, this crimp die is compatible with reloading presses that accept the standard 7/8"-14 thread pattern. Please note that the shellholder is not included with this product and must be sourced separately to match your specific cartridge dimensions.

Constructed from high-grade steel, this die offers exceptional durability and long service life under rigorous reloading conditions. It is housed in a protective plastic case for safe storage and transport, ensuring that the die remains free from contaminants and mechanical damage.
