That looks like a home fabricated deal to me. That appears to be a sizing die with some sort of fabricated part added. What are the numbers on the die?

Oh I just caught the bought off EBay part. The person that owned the set before you modified them. That is not Lee factory.

If you do not like the O-ring lock ring. The other makers sell thiers at a reasonable price. If you have a Lee Breach Lock they now sell a quick change with a screw to lock in the die. Personaly using a single stage I just unscrew and screw in another. 30 seconds is not that much time.

I have the Lee .38 Spcl/.357 Mag. Die set, and the .357 die set. Neither of them have a die that looks like that. None of them have any plastic in the die construction. The only non metal part is the rubber O-ring.
