Dimensions For a Genuine Star 45 Colt Seating Die
« on: February 09, 2010, 10:49:55 am »
Greetings,

I have started machining a 45 Colt seating die.

What I am missing is the depth from the mouth of the die to the crimping area.

Would someone who owns a GENUINE Star 45 Colt seating die contact me?

Cheers,

Dave Wilson

Dave,    

My Star 45 LC seating die measures 0.93" from the mouth to the start of the roll crimp.

Edited to correct the dimension.   Sorry Dave. ???
