This two-die set from RCBS is designed for bottleneck-type cases commonly used in tight-chambering semi-automatic, pump, and lever-action rifles. It includes a Small Base Sizer with an Expander-Decapping unit and a Regular Seater Die with a Seater Plug. The sizer reduces case dimensions slightly below SAAMI minimums to address tight chambers, and it also de-primes cases during sizing. The Seater Die features a built-in roll crimper that secures the bullet as it is seated; the crimp can be disabled by backing the die out until the crimp ring no longer engages the case mouth.
