Since you mentioned the 4 die set, it also contains the factory crimp die. Can you tell me the difference between the taper crimp die and the factory crimp die
The FCD will produce a crimp just like factory ammo. I use it on all my calibers. To date I have had zero feed issues due to crimp. It also will remove any bulge from the case caused by the bullet.

I'd also recommend a case trimmer, since you're loading .45ACP & 9mm brass. Case length is important on autoloader calibers since they headspace on the mouth.
I disagree with the above quote. I have yet to have a need for trimming cases. In my opinion the case will split before it needs trimming.
