I used to be a 3 die set guy. But I like to try many loads and different bullets. Just for convenience I bought a .38-9mm Dillon seater die for the only reason that all of my crimping setting for each caliber are the same. So all my 9mm and 357/38 third dies have become the fourth one.
Yeah, I know I,ve gotta set the seater everytime I change the bullet but it´s easy and not so time consuming.
The exception to this rule is when I load 38 wc. Then I use my third Lyman die for the only reason that the seater plug designed for this bullet shape is just perfect. When loading 38 wc I only use 3 dies.
I never change the crimp. Straight cased calibers allways deserve a light roll crimp and tapered ones need a taper crimp that just removes the flare.
