Lee Factory Rifle Crimp Die, 9.3x62mm

The Lee Factory Rifle Crimp Die in 9.3x62mm (Lee part no. 90610) uses a 7/8-14 inch thread to crimp the bullet in place more firmly than any other tool on the market, according to Lee’s own testing. Tests demonstrate that even bullets with no crimp groove shoot more accurately once crimped this way, because a firm crimp improves accuracy by requiring pressure to build to a higher level before the bullet begins to move. That higher start pressure produces a more uniform pressure curve and less velocity variation from round to round, tightening groups over a standard seating die alone.
