Guys,
I am looking at getting the Hornady die(s) for my LnL but see RCBS make a similar all in one unit.
The RCBS has one body with 4 plastic collets for 4 calibers.
The Hornady is one die one caliber. Both cost about the same.
Has anyone used the RCBS unit,or even better,compared it to the Hornady?
Cheers,
Tony
I haven't used either of them, but are you going to try to use them for cast boolits? It is my understanding that neither of them are cast friendly, but I have seen youtube videos of the Hornady ones being altered to use with cast. Apparently the RCBS ones cannot be made to work well with cast, so that may be something to look at if you intend to use them with boolits.

Love casting small boolits, let me know if you have one that I don't that you would part with!
Good point on the RCBS die with having a plastic insert.
Hornady it will be,and will try with cast.
Cheers,
Tony
