The Lee Precision 90344 Carbide 3-Die Set delivers precision reloading capabilities for the powerful .460 Smith & Wesson Magnum cartridge. This complete die set eliminates the need for case lubrication during resizing operations while producing consistent, accurate ammunition for hunting and target shooting applications.
What Makes This Different
Carbide sizing dies resist wear and corrosion far better than standard steel dies, maintaining dimensional accuracy through thousands of reloading cycles. The carbide construction allows dry resizing without case lubricants, reducing preparation time and eliminating the messy cleanup associated with traditional lubricated cases. Lee's precise manufacturing tolerances ensure uniform case dimensions and consistent bullet seating depth across every round.
Key Features
- Carbide full-length sizing die eliminates need for case lubrication
- Powder-through expanding die flares case mouth for bullet seating
- Bullet seating die with built-in roll crimp function
- Includes shell holder, powder dipper, and load data
- Standard 7/8-14 thread fits most reloading presses
- Precision-machined components maintain tight tolerances
- Compatible with Lee Auto-Drum and Pro Auto-Disk powder measures
The .460 S&W Magnum demands precise reloading techniques due to its substantial powder capacity and high operating pressures. This die set handles everything from light target loads using 200-grain bullets to full-power hunting loads with 300-grain projectiles. The carbide sizing die maintains case life by reducing work-hardening, while the expanding die provides optimal neck tension for consistent bullet retention and accuracy.
