I have the Lee and RCBS roll and taper crimp dies, they work OK.

But what is a bit weird on my part is the use of Lyman 310 dies for a really great roll crimp every time for the .44 special and .45 Colt caliber.

Of course you have to use a reducer bushing to use the 5/8X30 dies in a modern press with its 7/8X14 thread holes.

I use a Lee bullet seater die to seat the bullet in a prearrange depth in the brass case...then the 310 roll crimp die.
