Lee reloading die question

Hey howdy,
Just started reloading for my 308 win. Ar-10..
I cannot find any information, and I have looked, for the following Lee dies.
They are marked as; Lee Decapper 308 W-D1
Lee Factory 308 crimp W-E1
Lee Bullet seating Die 308 W-B1

any info about them will be greatly appreciated.
These came from an online auction as is.

thanks

Might want to call/email Lee Precision, I'm sure they could let you know.

Lee Precision has instructions online in PDF format, located here.

There is also a Lee Precision help desk online with common questions and answers at this link.

His dies are marked differently from the normal dies we get today. It's best he finds out what exactly he has before trying to load with them.

The only one I would question is the "Decapping die". Probably a F/L sizing/decapping die. The others are self explanatory. The Amazon link isn't any help as that set has a F/L sizing die, a collet neck sizing die, bullet seating die, and FCD (collet crimp die)...
