Lee Precision 90416 Carbide Factory Crimp Die .416 Rem Mag

The Lee Precision 90416 Carbide Factory Crimp Die delivers consistent bullet seating and case mouth crimping for .416 Remington Magnum cartridges. This specialized reloading die addresses the unique requirements of large magnum cartridges, ensuring proper bullet retention and consistent chamber pressures. The carbide construction eliminates the need for case lubrication during the crimping process.

What Makes This Different

The Factory Crimp Die system applies crimps in a separate operation after bullet seating, preventing bullet deformation that can occur with combination dies. The carbide sizing ring removes slight case expansion while applying the crimp, resulting in more uniform cartridge dimensions. This two-step process produces ammunition with improved concentricity compared to standard roll crimp dies.

Key Features

• Carbide construction eliminates case lubrication requirements
• Separate crimping operation prevents bullet deformation
• Integrated sizing ring ensures consistent case dimensions
• Compatible with .416 Remington Magnum cartridges exclusively
• Standard 7/8"-14 threading fits most reloading presses

The Factory Crimp Die proves particularly valuable for hunters loading heavy bullets in .416 Remington Magnum cartridges, where proper bullet retention under recoil becomes critical. The separate crimping operation allows reloaders to fine-tune crimp tension without affecting overall cartridge length. Competition shooters benefit from the improved consistency in cartridge dimensions, which translates to more predictable chamber fit and pressure curves.
