I bought an RCBS .38/.357 taper crimp seater die on eBay, for use with light loads and cheap, non-cannelured bullets. The guy who sold me the die did not include the seater plug lock-nut. I emailed RCBS asking to buy a seater plug lock nut from them (like a $0.50 part) and the sent it to me, first-class, FOR FREE! They considered it warranty service.

I've got about a dozen RCBS dies sets and a 1970's Rocker Chucker. I have one Redding die among the lot. Based on this very good experience with RCBS, I think I will stick with them. I have thought about getting a Lee collet die for neck sizing .303's, but I can do what I need with the RCBS FL die set shallowly, so I probably won't.
