The Lee Precision 90930 Collet Crimp Die delivers precision bullet seating and consistent case mouth crimping for .44 Remnum Magnum cartridges. This specialized reloading die eliminates case mouth flare while maintaining proper bullet tension and concentricity.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard roll crimp dies that can buckle cases or create inconsistent neck tension, the collet crimp design applies uniform radial pressure around the entire case mouth. The collet mechanism contracts evenly to remove case flare without distorting the brass or affecting overall cartridge length. This results in more consistent chamber fit and improved accuracy compared to conventional crimping methods.
Key Features
- Collet-style crimping eliminates case mouth distortion and maintains concentricity
- Removes case bell/flare without affecting cartridge overall length
- Heat-treated steel construction with precision-machined threads
- 7/8-14 TPI standard threading fits most single-stage and progressive presses
- Factory-adjusted crimp depth reduces setup time
- Compatible with jacketed, cast, and plated bullets
- Includes detailed instructions and load data references
The collet crimp die excels in applications requiring consistent bullet retention and uniform case preparation. Competition shooters benefit from the improved concentricity and consistent neck tension that enhances accuracy potential. Hunters loading heavy bullets for dangerous game appreciate the reliable crimp that prevents bullet setback during feeding. The die works effectively with both moderate .44 Special loads and full-power .44 Magnum cartridges.
