Lee Precision 90827 Factory Crimp Die 7.62x39mm Reloading Die

The Lee Precision 90827 Factory Crimp Die delivers consistent bullet seating and case mouth crimping for 7.62x39mm cartridges. This specialized reloading die eliminates feeding issues and improves accuracy by applying uniform crimp pressure while maintaining proper case dimensions.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard taper crimp dies that only squeeze the case mouth, the Lee Factory Crimp Die uses a collet system that applies radial pressure around the entire bullet circumference. This design prevents bullet setback during feeding while maintaining concentricity. The die also post-sizes the cartridge to SAAMI specifications, ensuring reliable chambering in any 7.62x39mm firearm.

Key Features

• Collet-style crimping system applies uniform radial pressure

• Hardened steel construction with precision-machined threads

This die proves particularly valuable for semi-automatic rifles where reliable feeding is critical. The consistent crimp eliminates the feeding malfunctions common with improperly crimped 7.62x39mm ammunition. Competitive shooters report improved accuracy from the enhanced bullet retention, while hunters appreciate the reliability in adverse conditions.
