Lee shellholder question?

FullCry · April 12, 2010, 02:42 PM

I own a 4-die carbide set of Lee dies for a .40 cal. and the shell holder came with the set. I now am going to order the same set for .44 mag and am wondering if the shell holder will come with this set? Do all Lee dies come with the shell holder? Thanks, FullCry

I believe that the only Lee dies that ship sans shellholder are the RGB (Really Great Buy) series.

That is correct, and the only dies that you can get in the RGB series are the most popular rifle calibers -- like .308, .30-06, etc etc. .204 Ruger, for example, isn't available in an RGB set because it's not one of the biggest of the big sellers.

All the other Lee sets come with a shellholder.

Tell me what caliber you need and I'll see what I have to swap. PM me and we'll discuss.
