Description

The RCBS Legacy 3-Die Roll Crimp Set for .40-65 Shiloh Sharps (part no. 23304) is purpose-built for the black-powder-cartridge-rifle crowd still shooting original and reproduction Sharps rifles. RCBS’s Legacy series exists specifically to keep these older, low-volume chamberings supplied with dedicated tooling rather than forcing reloaders to adapt a modern die set. The set covers sizing, expanding, and seating in three steel dies.

Key Specifications

  • Steel Sizer Die resizes the fired case body back to spec and de-primes it in the same stroke.
  • Expander Die opens the case mouth to the correct inside diameter and flares it so the cast or jacketed bullet seats straight.
  • Seater Die seats the bullet to the correct overall length before the crimp is applied.
  • Roll crimp applied by the seater die locks the bullet in place for reliable feeding and recoil resistance.
  • Cases must be lubricated before sizing since these are steel, not carbide, dies.
  • Part of RCBS’s Legacy series built specifically to support older black-powder-era cartridges still fired in original and reproduction rifles.
