Does this die set come with "taper crimp" die?

The seating die has a taper crimp built in, and the four die set also has a separate "factory crimp die", which can be used to crimp in place of the seating die. The F/C die is also used with the "Bulge Buster" kit, which is used to reduce any case bulging in the base area of the case, common in .40 caliber cases, even ones not fired in Glock pistols. I am very satisfied with mine. I use die sets from several different makers, and Lee is a good value for the money.

It has the ability to crimp yes, but I just use a Lee factory crimp die when I want the crimp.

No john your deprimer is part of your " resizing and depriming die". Usually all die sets come with this die specific to your caliber.

It appears as though the answer is ... Maybe!!I see some responses that said yes, I even saw a video that demonstrated how to set the crimp, but mine does not as was the case with another response. the number stamped on mine is LEE-308W-D3. maybe the ones that crimp are a different number or maybe Lee changed how they made their dies.

Jim, the crimper has more than enough power to crimp this connector, it comes with a good selection of dies that will work for your application, another source for the die size/ information is www.burndy.com glad to help, regards

Hi Jerryc321, The short answer is yes. The die sets for .223 and 5.56 are exactly the same. This includes, Full Length Sizing/Decapping die, Bullet Seating die, Factory Crimp Die. Good shootin!

What you get with a 3 die system is your sizing & de-primer die, your expander die, your bullet seating and crimp die and your shell holder. The 4 die set uses one die to seat the bullet and another die to crimp. The measure device should be thrown away, always weight your powder charges.

It doesn't include the universal decapping die but, the collet neck sizing die does have a decapping pin in it.

Yes, the bullet seating die doubles as a crimper. The advantage of the 4 die set is that the "Factory Crimp" die further resizes the case and applies a factory crimp, so you can be sure any round will work in any pistol.

it does not crimp. I use the lee taper crimp die on my single stage after I load a batch

No expert on dies. Different capabilities based on dies included in each set. Either should work.

No. The kit does not include dies. The deprimer is part of the sizing die. The sizing die both resizes fired brass to factory spec and removes the old primer at the same time.

The question is is it a roll or taper. I don't know what it actually is but it should be a taper crimp.

Yes but I got mine from Mac tools. Mac used to sell this tool in a kit but I lost the crimper. All the dies from Mac work with this tool

No the expanders are sold separately, but they aren't very expensive. The powder throughs do save a station so you can use a powder check and a separate crimp die.

My kit did have instructions that described each crimp die. It's very easy to change them out. I really like this tool.

It's a taper crimp. The die will be marked "TC" on the side of the seating die.
