So I've been using a Lee deluxe 4 die set for years now for 40S&W, with only factory j-words up until recently. Since I started loading cast, I've replaced the Lee case expander with a Lyman M die because I had some lead shaving off when using the Lee expander. To expand it enough to not shave lead I was having to open the case mouth way too much, and the M die gives me better control.
So I was looking at my dies the other day, because I has having occasional lead shaving even though the case mouth was plenty wide enough to seat without shaving. That's when I noticed: the seater dies says .45ACP on it! I guess I never read the engraving, I just assumed they were the right dies since they came in s sealed box from Lee.
All the other dies say 10/40 on them, but the seater clearly says 45ACP. I've never owned any Lee 45ACP dies to mix them up. It's been years, like 6 or 7, and I just never noticed because it never gave me any trouble with j-words.
How would I get in touch with Lee about this? I've looked on the website and all the contact links lead to an FAQ. I'd even be happy to buy a 45acp set from them if they'd swap out the seater for a 10/40 seater, so I'd have both complete sets.
Anyone have anything like this.happen before?
