Bout to order my sizing dies

[Nate1778]

Got a .380, 9mm and .357 that I am going to need to size for. Would like to buy my sizing dies today, Lee obviously has .356,.357,.358 dies, should I just buy all three. Tried slugging my .357 but having 5 grooves made it difficult to be accurate at best. I was just going to buy two of the three, the .356 ad the .358 but read in the 9mm thread some guys 9mm like the .357 size bullet. What am I going to regret buying all three or not?

At those prices, what's to regret? Get them all. If you guns don't need them, save them for when you have one that does or put it on the selling and trading section here. Someone will want the one you don't.

+1 with Wayne.

I might not buy the .356" die, but if the .357 won't chamber easily, then the shipping or gas to get the .356" might be almost as much as the die in the first place. You won't know if the .357" will work until you try it in your chamber(s).

Gotcha, you guys confirmed what I was already thinking. Does anyone know if Bass Pro Shops carry the sizing dies or LLA. I was going to get them from midway but figure if that is a product they carry it might be worth the drive.

[lurch]

No Bass Pro I have ever been in (admittedly not very many) had squat for reloading, let alone casting there in the store. Depending on your drive time and how desperate you are to get them, why not just order online and spring for the express shipping? I'd definitely call before I drove very far. Sizing dies didn't come up when I tried searching their web site so...

[Nate1778]

Huh, not a far drive, right across the river, and they have always stocked a ton of reloading gear. Casting is a different animal though. I am ordering from Midway, they sent me a B-day discount.

[Wayne Smith]

What river, Nate? Same for me, but a local shop, Bob's in Norfolk, carries a lot of Lee stuff.

The Ohio, its the only thing that separates us hillbillies from them thar mongrel Hoosiers.
