RCBS question
« on: October 03, 2010, 10:16:13 AM »
The other night I was watching a show on the outdoor channel, they were touring the RCBS factory, at one point it was mentioned that RCBS manufactures Dies for another company, and puts the dies in a different color box with this company’s name on them.
I use RCBS and Lyman dies mainly, but also have a couple Hornady as well as Lee.
So I do not think it is one of the mentioned dies.
Dose anyone know who RCBS is making dies for, just curious.

How dare you insault my Lee dies like that !  :D :D :D :D :D :D

Not sure who they make dies for , however I don't think its one of the big 3 ( Hornady , Lee , Lyman ) , more than likely its one of the mid-level guys -- But you just never know and its a good guess their not telling .  ;)

The consciences on a couple other forms seem to be Dillion, which would make sense, But this is another industry secret that the true answer may never be revealed.
